The last few days have been great! I made 4 very large sales between Monday & Tuesday, so financially, things will be much better (my W was the breadwinner, but that is changing).
She called yesterday inquiring on the status of our home, which we were hoping to list for sale on the 1st of April. But due to the kids, work and what not, it's not quite finished being prepped. She freaked out about it, until I pointed out that I was doing all the work myself and she hadn't helped at all. This did not sit well with her, so she went on the attack. Instead I said "I want this house gone, our divorce finalized and you OUT of my life!" Which in turn freaked her out I think, because the next email was all nice and friendly from her.
I think she is finally realizing that I am not pursuing her anymore and that I am ok with this being done. That it's no longer her decision only and she is having a hard time with it.
On the plus side, last night I went to dinner with a girl I met recently. There isn't any romantic interest between us (her divorce was finalized in January), but it was nice talking with someone about things of the opposite sex. Similar situation as me, her H came home and said he wanted a divorce, she actually DB'd him (she mentioned the book then laughed when I took my copy out of the car) and after reading it she realized she did not want to save their marriage. We talked for roughly 2 hours about it, how it affected her and her kids, her life, etc. It was good.
My kids come back tonight, I haven't had them since Sunday morning, so I am excited about that. I think we are just going to hang out and watch movies and what not. So that should be fun too!
