Sotto - thanks for the comments and I understand your opinion about still being too preoccupied with my W to be in a new R, but its its just so hard to see her so broken. She has a history of mental health issues and I just worry for her. I will always love her (just in a different way now).

Doodler - the drowning analogy is excellently well put. I know that its not my job to fix or to help, however her family (whilst close and a lovely family) don't tend to get involved in each others business. This means that they won't sit her down and try to help. Someone needs to helps this poor girl.


Its hard to hear from someone who you loved for 18 years that you're dead to them. Knowing that they have pure hatred for you and that things (co-parenting) will now be even more difficult. I just don't know what to do or whats best....

I've been told by so many to just leave her and I agree that she probably needs some space. I just wish that we could have an amicable R for the sake of our S.
