Hi fightin,

You are doing so so well! I am very surprised and very glad! It's both good and bad that the big D is moving forward so fast. But we just need to focus on the good and build on it. In Australia, you can't filed for D unless you have been separated for 12 months. When you are going through emotional ups and downs, not making any decisions is best, but it does put me in agony, especially with him coming over playing with S seemingly happy, and asking me how is my wellbeing and how he still care about me. Apparently that is just temp checking and attempting to cake eat...?! I don't know anymore. You are in a better place now as you are moving on.

As for your ss's dad, he obviously has his own problems. I guess act "as if" can also apply in this situation. Don't react to his strange comments. Be friendly but not invest in the conversations. He will stop when he's not getting the reaction he's hoping. Hope that helps:)
