Ex got rid of the Jaquar convertible. OW is not always around anymore. Ex sent my daughter over one day to ask me if I was getting married soon. If I was, he wanted me to know that I should take my time in making this decision because he did not want me to get stuck with a "bad mistake" like he did. Drama is quieting down. He texts me to say "have a good weekend" He is on prescription medication for depression. His traveling has stopped.

Did he marry OW?? It seems to take them forever to realise they really messed up. But his actions do seem to be matching up with words - always a good sign.
No, he never married other woman, but I know she has been pressuring him...

Trusting it took my xh about 16 months between asking my forgiveness and starting to be remotely reasonable. Like you, I thought when he broke down and said how terribly sorry he was, that was the beginning of the end of MLC, but no. After a short time of being sorry he was back to being Mr Terrible. It is only for the past month or so that we have had email contact that is civil. He is also reaching out to his children again, and starting to contact old friends . . .. It is almost 6 years since he started real MLC type behaviour, [depressed for a long while before that] so yes, it lasts a long time. And I am not holding my breath, just enjoying teh occasional email interchange. It could all change on a dime.
