Thanks Owl, you are probably right. W immediately turned the end of last nights conver. into when we could proceed with D. She has just been pushing that the whole time. Up until now I've just avoided the D talk and left alone but I think avoiding it is getting in my way. I'm letting it proceed at this point. It doesn't change anything in my mind, its just paperwork. I'm feeling clear of conscience with everything out in the open. She might feel like she had her reasons but she never brought them to me in the past or tried to get them resolved so I don't feel guilty. I recognize the mistakes for what they were and realize I need to be a better communicator. For now, it seems, things will start to be on a schedule where we aren't in contact so often and I think it will be much better opportunity for me to focus on me and stop worrying about her all the time. There has been a large wall up between us where she was keeping these secrets afraid that if I found out that I would file and cut her out of S life. That's not the case and she says she see's that now and will trust me as she is giving me custody without debate.
