"You asking for D woke me up to what I was doing. I realize that OM was just an escape for me."
My W's words to me, June 2012.

So the answer to your question, is yes.

However, I had spent 18 months consistently showing her my changes and that our M would be different than it was before she left.

thank you suppo and denver!


Had I gone along with her request in December 2010 to jointly file for D, we would now be D'd. I guess that I can't say for sure that we would not have reconciled anyway, but I don't think that the odds of it happening would have been as good... and they were already pretty damn low (I gave myself a 10% chance of saving things in January 2011).

Hope that helps.
