I understand it's hard, but it seems like some of the conflict and anger towards your W is self-inflicted.

For example, you said
"My wife really pissed me off last weekend. I did her a favor by dropping off my son so he could make his doctor appointment, I offered to drive him to our house. She called up and said she is taking her mom to a restaurant for lunch and we could just meet there as it was halfway. I show up at the restaurant and she is there with all her girlfriends, who I’d imagine have been talking smack about me and despise me at this point. Another embarrassing and depressing situation. I sort of felt down about that the rest of the day."

I don't see where SHE specifically pissed you off. And alot of what you THOUGHT they talked about was "imagined" by you. In any event, I'm sure your family and friends (to a certain degree) talk badly about the XW as well. Let it go.
