Vapo - I think you’re right in both points. She’s been trying to get my to leave or divorce her for years. She may have worked on things for a bit when we were in Retrouvaille but overall she’s been looking to leave and she’s been testing me to see how much pressure I could tolerate.

Mentally I’m working to make the switch to focusing on our relationship as one of co-parents. I need to move forward in the divorce process, and I need to continue to make good decisions in regards to GAL.

Last night I went to my new men’s group. I’ve got five days coming up with my parents in FL. I get back and have the kids for two days, dinner with a client, a day off, then 5 days with the kids. I’m working my schedule about two weeks ahead. If I have nothing going on I’m likely to pine and feel lonely, so I’ve scheduled stuff out (and will continue to do so) as much as possible.

I know myself and if I have nights open, I am likely to falter.
