I think LSG is fine today as he does not have to fake the funk. What I am reading is what he see's is NOT HIS WIFE, so he doesn't have to fake detachment, her games probably do not bother him anymore and may look a bit childish. I don't think it tears him up anymore, I think she is wasting her time.
I hope you're right, DLS. If he has really got to this point, he has reached the goal we all strive for.
LSG-^^^^^^^^^^^ That's it! She's not your wife. She can't get to you.
