Had a great session with the Marriage Coach today. He said that I appear to be in a much better place then I was a few weeks ago (Must be all my board supporters!). We discussed boundaries and rules. He said that he can see the way my wife tries to seduce me with her eyes and her facial expression; it was noticed by all at the table. He said she does not want to completely let me go; He agreed the more I play “Hard to get” the more I 180 her the more she gets caught up and frustrated as to why her antics are not seducing me.
He did state that getting her own apartment or not won’t have an effect she’s months away from waking up. He pointed out how she is very very protective of OM, almost too where he is her son. He said that OM has no means is not smart is not the smartest tour guide. He does not understand what she sees in him. He also said that I have been misinterpreting my IC, she’s not saying STBXW is a true liar, it’s that she’s like OJ Simpson, she’s so caught up in her fantasy and lies and so controlled by OM and her feelings that she’s not in reality anymore she does not know what’s real.
The thing is he said I am better looking more intelligent have more in common with her, but for some reason she has been seduced by his needs. But tells the coach how she wants to work out with me , go to dinner with me, (He was saying this with a total look of utter disdain on his face)
What I found amazing is that she has said I was to needy, he said first of all she’s more codependent on me then me her, also that based on what he learned about OM , he is 100x more needy then me, has serious commitment issue, and eventually she will tire of him or vice versa.
His comment to me is I know you love her, I know you want to protect her, but you need to realize that a divorce is just a piece of paper, that she’s not going to let you leave her life.’ THAT STEVE HAS TO AND SHOULD LEAVE HER LIFE, which is the only way for me to grow. He said the in-house separation will only work if she honors my boundaries.
He is drawing up a plan B in case she does not.
His prediction, I will move on, my sons will detach from her. She will lose her job and then OM, she will come back to me begging and pleading for forgiveness…but, I may have moved on and found a woman that does not try to hook me by my anxiety and then attack me over it..In other words a woman who functions in a normal loving and mature way.
