Thanks scaredsilly :-)

I agree with you wholeheartedly... I'll even take it a step further and say my W really falls into that category too. Logically speaking, I would be better off without any of them in my life, it is much easier when you only have to worry about being responsible for yourself.

The guys in my class put me on blast last night saying that I'm too nice of a guy and given what has transpired that I shouldn't be doing anything for my W and stepkids. That's easier said than done because I still love them. That is the frustrating thing that keeps me spinning. I will always love my stepkids as they are great and have never done anything to hurt me. On the other hand I have been my W's emotional pinata for the last year, and it makes no sense that I still love her given everything that I have been through, but I still do...
