To everyone thank you all for your advice and support. I feel like things should be getting better, but since we have S and are the precipice of D things are getting darker and harder. I think it is a combo of the new challenges she brings and my own internal struggles as the cause this. Again18 after your second post it appears I did misunderstand you. Thank you for being so supportive. I think you and a few others have posted that they really believe I have a good chance for R down the road. I won't give up hope, but I feel like that hope is getting smaller and the chance for R is getting bleaker every day. It is a direct contrast to my life outside of what I am going through. Beyond D and my W my life has been great and is on the upswing. The dichotomy between the two facets of my life is very confusing emotionally.
I just received a text from W this morning wanting to know if I wanted her dog. It sent me reeling. I don't want him and never did. She bought him on an impulse in Feb. and she just complicated her/our life. I have a dog and that's all I need. However, it would be sad and a shame to see her get rid of hers.
What I want to say is Sorry W, I will not be able to take your dog. Please do not give him away as it would absolutely crush D8. You know how devastated you were when your parents gave away your dogs at 2 different times in your life. Please consider our children in your decision.
I have not responded and will sit on it until I get input here.
Lastly, since my last post she has tried calling me or texting me a few times which I haven't answered the phone and have only responded to text regarding the kids, briefly and on my own time. I did send her a pic of a bill of hers that came to my house, but gave her no further communication from her response.
