Thank you FS that's very kind. It's my birthday this week so middle son is coming up to stay and we will all be together on Friday. Can't wait.

Knowing him, I think he will be genuinely shocked that he has been criticised. In his world view, I made him unhappy so he found happiness elsewhere and it was all my fault.

I can see he's done some self reflection. Not. But then again he's got the downgrade telling him how perfect he is.

Everything is everybody else's fault. Mine, the boys, his business partner, his clients, etc etc. Now it'll also be my Ls fault.

Just when I feel some peace and calm, something comes along that knocks me a bit. I hope that true peace and calm come when the house is sold and the Divorce final.
