Brightfuture, thank you for your 2 cents, it does mean a lot. My W when I met her was very shy and reserved. I remember vividly how much she would cling, clutch and grab me constantly. As though she didn't want to lose me at all. So what you said makes a lot of sense.
An update. Over the weekend the W texted me twice to let me know about the presents she bought the sons for xmas. Weird as she didn't let me know anything for the important 21st birthday, but xmas I need to kown. WTF. Also the letter from the solicitor over two weeks ago said the paperwork would be issued within a few days, still waiting. On a good note, the tenants are vacating the house before I move back to the city. So no living with my Mum. It will also give me the holidays to clean, make repairs and get back to near normal lifestyle before it was taken away from me with the transfer.
