The dilemma is what I decide to do. I was done with it a couple of days ago and ready to file and searched for houses a long way away but then my kids gave me lovely hugs, said they enjoyed our meal with W, and said they wanted our family together again.
W is distraught missing them so much when they are with me. W is an intelligent woman but her behaviour is all over the place. Maybe one day she will recover and realise her mistakes, or maybe not. [/quote]
This is why your kids are having such a hard time. Because that is not your reality right now, and when your family time is over, it goes back to their reality.
You guys need to be living what your actual reality is right now. And that is your W not recommitting to the marriage and you are feeding her cake.
