Just to add to it.... my W told me she hasn't loved me and has been "miserable" for "the last 10 years". This is one stright from the MLC script. Like was already pointed out they need to justify their actions. If they didn't, if they actually remembered the love and good times then they wouldn't be able to blame us. Anything to not have to look inward is what they need!

I too have my W trying to tell me how to tell my D15 how to feel about her and deal with her. That's their sand box and you are right to stay out of it. You are doing great. I too have come closer to God in all this. One of the positives from a bad sitch. You're doing great. Keep letting W have what she has said she wants.... to be on her own. Hard for us fixers but you are doing well. You've got this Cali!
