Ok guys I really appreciate your advice and comments. I consider myself to be a very patient person (friends also say that) but in this situation I'm realizing that I haven't been as patient as I need to be.

I also worry about every little interaction and try to guess what the hell she's thinking. For example, we had that chat Tuesday night and then Wednesday she was super pleasant and cheery - almost as if she doesn't realize the destruction that she's caused up until this point.

I obviously hope that we can reunite although I do not like the person she's been and I fully believe that this isn't the real W.

In order to protect me and our Son I'll have my L send the separation agreement proposal. I'll work hard on doing my own thing and being a great dad. Give her space. Be pleasant and positive during interactions AND I will do my best to let whatever she is saying or doing roll off my back. Validate as needed.

I do believe that deep down she knows something isn't right with her but until she's ready to do some work on her end there is nothing I can do.

I'll be sure to post here as needed, especially if I'm faced with an issue that I'm not sure how to handle.

Mentally - it helps me to just think of her as somebody else right now. I wouldn't really care what they were up to but I'd be pleasant during interactions.
