Well, just a quick status update. I am one week away from mediation, I hope it goes smooth. My soon to be ex is a total narcissist she is holding tight on leaving me just about nothing....I don't have any conversations with her about it, just back and forth from my Lawyer. I can't believe that a human could defile a marriage with infidelity, then after not wanting to reconcile go for blood during the divorce. I just don't get it...at all. I hope my Lawyer can make this fair for me, I figure if we both walk away from this feeling like we didn't get what we deserved then it will be fair.
I do think I am in a pretty good place as far as healing. I very seldom get that knife in the gut feeling. I still have anxiety when thinking of her with someone else, even though I have moved on and begun dating a pretty nice gal who appreciates me for who I am. So weird I get all stressed out about things that would affect my ex and this gal could care less, interesting how different people are, even when my buddies say "all women are the same". I thought I would have trust "issues" but I really don't, I know that I could never trust my ex again, hence why I filed for D. I trust my girlfriend, as she hasn't given me a reason not to.
Just spewing a few updates in my life...
