I validated up a storm. I know that I need to continue to do that, and not apply any pressure at all. I need to step back and let him lead. And, devastatingly, I will need to continue to participate in the divorce process. What else???
You nailed it right there! Just keep doing what you're doing. I am sure it's tempting to try to negotiate a "cease fire" with him but don't. He's got to make that decision. He's also got to think you are OK with following through with D. You told him how you feel, now don't tell him again because that would be pressure.
