Labug, Blake, PON, thanks.
I like the brick wall idea. That also may bring me out of my funk.
I do need to detach more. My W actions do affect me and I need to get away from that.

PON, it is amazing that your W said the exact same thing to you. I hadn't read that on any other sitch. You just want to help them so badly but as everyone says, they can only help themselves.

As for the kids, I have always been there for them. To a fault even. I have always tried to be "super dad". I have given up things that I enjoy doing so I could spend more time with the family. In hindsight this was a mistake. W even made a comment recently about how I stopped playing softball.

Again, thanks for the reply. It is not so easy to look in the mirror sometimes and describe what you see and the mistakes and wrong turns you have made.
