I want to be crystal clear on this. Her utmost fear is that I will Lawyer Up. Why? Because my family's pockets are a 1000 times deeper than hers. And, she doesn't have the $ to hire one. She is deathly afraid of this.
I think her words once were, "If we go get lawyers and you get your parents involved, it is completely over and there is no going back."
So, I haven't played that card yet. It's my ace in the hole. Not sure when to play it. I think I will take this weekend to go dark, detach, get calmed down, then re-evaluate.
If I get a L, there is no way in hell she will see that as defensive. At that point it's ON like DONKEY KONG.
How many times has she told you it's over? These WAW's are so ridiculous! They repeatedly say there is no hope, they are done, they don't want to work on the M anymore, blah, blah, blah. But then they use this threat of "Now it's REALLY over" as a method of control. It's OUTRAGEOUS! Don't stand for it.
The further I get from my situation, the more I see the truth in all this. The fact that the WAW uses the LBS's desire to save the M as a weapon of control is beyond selfish. It's vicious.
