I agree with you Wes...I was the only one "in" in my sitch. Some of you others have bits and pieces and glimmers of hope reinforced by ACTIONS that are POSITIVE! I had nothing in that vein...nothing at all. In fact, I had some negatives and a lot of signs of someone who was dealing with things at the level of a junior high. I can't make her do anything. My main regret is that I was not able to really spot this during the 2 1/2 years we dated prior to marriage. It really didn't come out until after we married. Actually, my main regret is the pain, suffering, and sorrow this has had on my younger sons. Even my oldest son (nearly 23 years old) recently expressed how sorry he was that this happened right after he and his wife moved away from us. This has had repercussions for a lot more than just her and me. I can't help but wonder how this has and will effect her kids...they won't do counseling...refuse to really talk. So very sad...
Thank you for your support and encouragement. The last letter was done in a "I have nothing to lose" situation and there just was no response whatsoever. I don't have to have the door slammed on my nose and fingers.
