Hi Guys, W is not guilty, nor am I. There's no guilt in the process, only responsible people. I take responsibility for what happened, if I am the leader in the couple, when it fails, it is the leader who takes the blame.
It's been a long time I stopped listening to my friends, I prefer to chose the path of love, even if it is met with rejection by W. But I won't grow weary, because while I was a sinner, God loved me and didn't give up. I know where W is coming from, emotionnaly. I understand. I just don't agree with her decision, that's all.
I acknowledge her pain, her wanting her needs met, and her pulling out of an unsatisfactory marriage from a selfish husband. She wanted something I didn't give her, and as a consequence she gets rid of me.
So I try my best and put a band-aid on, and obviously it isn't enough for such a big wound, so she inflicts me a deeper wound by separating, to make sure I'm wounded too and making sure that nobody heals, and that our S, the only one who has nothing to do with all of it, reaps the consequences of both our being immature...
Anyways, just writing to say that I agreed to meet with W, W's L, and my L on Thursday to try and settle visitation time. Preliminary discussion looks like one week I'll see S three times, and the second week I'll have S from Friday evening to Monday morning.
Does it look like fair to you? Should I ask for more, especially the first week where I only see S for three times two hours (that's 6 hours for me, against 162 hours for W!)
Also, for how long should I agree this transient state to last? One month, two months max?
How should I appear Thursday, interested by only S, or should I propose for W to see a counsellor, even if only ONE appointment?
Thank you for your insight, Bruce.
