This time I won't even try to get her back. It's like when you were little and you split a sandwich in two to share with a friend. You always handed them the smaller piece but just to be sure you took it back and compared it again then handed it back and said 'here and no backsies!' Well, I'm giving STBXW back to the world.
LOL!! Bet on your wedding day you never imagined comparing your stbx to this sammich division!

ITA. Guilting and blaming someone are not the ways to reconcile a R.
