Divorced #3

[Arsene]

Yeah, guys. I think there's a part in all of us who wants to disturb our former life as little as possible. W wanted to sell our car (which I don't use a lot since I have the motorbike) to buy a scooter because she says the car is too expensive to maintain. I ended up telling her that I'd help with the maintenance and that I thought it was important to have the car so we could do stuff, such as going out of town, camping and such, with D8.

In the end, she agreed and I felt relieved. I now realise that I want to keep things together, sort of minimize the level of destruction in her path, for as long as I can. I guess the way I see it is that as long as we keep these things the way they were, W might still be wavering. The second that we go past a certain point, she might start thinking we have gone too far to ever come back.

I might be wrong, but that's the way I see it. I also play the ostrich game, with my head in the sand. I don't ask questions for which I might not like the answer.

I guess I also see it as something I can do later, if I decide to move on. It would then show that I am serious about it.
