Bluedown....I am in a similar sitch. My W states the entire past 10 years has been nothing good. I too have the emails, letters, cards, pictures, ect of the love she poured out to me. Since BD she has erased it all. She even took down from her Facebook page "I have a wonderful 16 yr old son, and hero for a husband"...to simply "I have a wonderful 16 yr old son". Heartbreaking for sure.

But I have come to the realization that these scripts are self preservation mechanisms for the WAS. For whatever the reason they finally have chosen to leave, they build these massive walls to protect themselves. They can not let themselves feel any positive emotions for you, otherwise it may derail their initial intentions...or even stop them from moving forward with what they feel is the right thing at the time.

If I am wrong, please one of the former WAS's on here correct me.
