A LITTLE UPDATE: W's trip to visit her family is not planned for another month or so. Thanks for the heads up on checking on the OM.

I informed W that I am planning to get an RO on the OM (I already have it filled out) and she is quite unhappy with that idea of course. She defended him for pushing me, saying that I started it by calling him a "creep".

She also came to me this morning saying that she doesn't see how our marriage could ever work and that we need to end it. She seems very upset over all the exposure I have done. She keeps thanking me for ruining her reputation. She's ashamed to be seen in church, but she wants to go again this weekend because some long-time friends have come back to visit and asked us to be there to hear them speak from the pulpit. I need to get that RO submitted before the OM shows up again.

She says she can't stand my personality. I asked her why she married me and she said it was a mistake and that she was stupid. She repeated again that she tried to fix our marriage for 11 years. (she really didn't do much, just get a couple of relationship books, and tell me she wanted me to spend more time with her.) She never sought counseling or anything like that. I asked her, "Did you exhaust every effort to save our marriage? Have you left no stone unturned?" (Got that from Dr. Phil.) I noticed that she was on Dr. Phil's website today, but she also called the OM today. I also found a website about how it is possible for a person's personality to change, but I don't think she's interested.


My wife is asking for a divorce and I don't completely understand why.
