What I meant MrBond and everyone else is that I assume that people will recognize the pattern of things improving, the WAW panicing as a result (because if things go too well, that could take the "WA" out of WAW) and intentionally creating bad situations to get things back on a bad path.
As I said, the whole story is too long to type, but in essence, it involved my W and kids going to a cottage for the week and me not being asked to come. So all week, my kids are begging me to come up and I have to tell them I can't. Meanwhile, my good friend was invited up twice with his kids, while my kids assume that their dad doesn't want to be with them. And my oldest child from my first marriage is with me, wondering why she can't see her siblings. There's more, but in short, a very tough week and it made me realize exactly where I stand. At this point, I've pretty much given up. I know I haven't been DBing for that long, but the whole process has been going on a year and has nearly killed me, literally.
