Brief review: Me: 37 W: 34 5yr Son Separated since 10/28/04. Signed D Papers 3/24/05, with D scheduled to be finalized on May 2, 2005.
Despite approaching D, continued babysteps in my sitch. W moved yo-yo-ing from less fearfulness and more friendliness, back to a fearful, reactive stance likely due to D effects. Yet there continue to be positive signs: No OP, W in therapy and starting to exercise, stable at work, W commenting about her free weekends to me, and us co-parenting frequently and positively, with both of us keeping S5 as a very high priority.
I bought W out of house last week, relieving her of significant financial worry/focus. She'll stay there with S5, renting from me til August or so. I'm staying focused on R and my GAL work, realizing that friendship with W is primary goal. I'm attempting to stay unconditionally loving in a detached manner, focusing on S5 and myself, while I hope that, with God's grace and my and W's hard self-work, that she and I heal enough for us to have a second chance at some point. Looking forward to renewing our vows at some point.
