Brief review:
Me: 38
W: 34
6yo Son
Separated since 10/28/04.
Signed D Papers 3/24/05
D finalized 5/2/05.
The sitch was somewhat friendly through May, with XW somewhat depressed and lonely. In June, a true MLC mode kicked off, with XW engaging in really 'new' behavior, including spending great amts of $ on cosmetic improvements, considering bisexuality (personal ads for both sexes), lots of partying with 20s/t yos, and getting into at least a few dating Rs with men. Meanwhile, she was successfully pushing the 'husband' button on me to get me to give her $, pay for a maid, etc...
In July, I snooped, lost my sense of detachment, she placed a restraining order against me (bad), but I learned enough about her behavior to successfully drop the rope. My detachment is regained, with loads of GAL work, prayer, and refocus on myself and S6.
What now? One main goal of mere friendship with W.
