Fumbling my way forward

[TJT]

Thanks K! Yes, and you’re exactly right about the narcissism. I coincidentally just saw a quote myself that said never try to defend yourself against a narcissist… they already know you’re right and just want to watch you go crazy trying to prove it. He did that plenty when all this was going down, don’t care to do any of it again. The one thing he is completely right about is that he has to live with his consequences, and whether or not he fully realizes what that means at this moment, he’s gonna find out.

I’m glad in your case you are hopeful for your ex’s wife. Also doubly glad I never had kids with XH. I continue to feel bad for his son (from his first wife) though. What a wreck example of a good man he’s getting.
