I'd cut her "some" slack if she was doing "anything" to find happiness with you, but she isn't. Love doesn't drive her actions but fear of actually having to take care of herself.


greenblue90,

And we know she isn't doing anything to make him feel loved. If it is, its a microscopic, carefully managed scrap she throws him to quiet him down. When they are gone, you really have to make yourself a single person - and your former spouse is no longer your friend.
