Oh- and as for your questions as to why your XW decided to show her real self and sincerity at the last minute- just my opinion as a woman, but it probably didn't mean anything. Those thoughts were bothering her, and she relieved herself of them by taking an emotional dump on you... I'm sorry she did that- it was not fair. She purged herself, and as a result, burdened you with those thoughts.
I thought I'd bring this over here rather than follow up on my thread. But would you say she was purging herself of things she actually thought, felt? I know there's no hope but I'm just genuinely curious to know if she was still conflicted - as I know she was through most of this sitch and process.
16 months into sitch, 3 weeks divorced and detachment can still at times be elusive. Thanks, Bunny.
