Mike - Hang in there bruv, I don't think you saying what you did is to bad at this time as I am assuming you did it in a calm manner. Maybe that was an opportunity to encourage her to go to IC for her own benefit when this finally happens as you don't want her to ruin her life with built up anger !!! Just might prompt her to go before and it seems obvious to me she is in denial if a C has rang her 5 times to go, says to me C knows there are underlying issues with her.

Maybe word it in such a way that you want her to have the happiness she craves and deserves so will she go to IC for herself. You know she has alll this anger and (through you eating her alive line) what has she got to lose.

I personally thought it sounded pretty constructive. W needs to see consequences and you needed to get things done for closure. I don't see any problem in showing her the reality of her decisions. Stay strong, sounds like you are.

"I then asked my W if she would like to sit down and attempt to workout some of the things we would have to decide to split up."

That was all I had to read.

It was something that had to be done. Mediation is Wednesday.


Last I checked.. She was the one.

She is the one. She has my heart. It has been broken. She can't get past the anger. It is eating her up. She won't let me in.

I am sure she felt that way tonight.

I don't know what she feels. Her actions say it's over. Her words cut and sting.

"No packing ton"

Really. 4 letters.. and you still missed it.

ight -I missed the letters-can you explain here?

SC--are you coveting my lawn mower??? just kidding. hope you told the web guy you likes the pictures. That place is in my heart. There's something about that coast line that draws me there.

Arthur-she will not go. it falls on deaf ears. The MC says there is no reason it can't be saved. It is now about "punishing" me. I am convinced of that. I did say it in a calm manner bt really don;t think it mattered how I said it. It had the same effect either way. None. Unless you sent something last night or early this A.m. then I did not get it, please try again.

She will not "hear" anything anybody has to say about changing her decision. She has made her decision and it appears she will not go back. The only thing she goes back on is history. She sees no good, only the bad. She looks at honeymoon/wedding pictures and her eyes are blank. There is nothing there. Lots of anger and what I believe is hate.

I can't really worry about waht she does when we are done. My D will be my main priority. and surviving.

G-I don't see where I have a choice. It was business that had to be addressed. It will also save $ on Wednesday when medaition. The more we have done the less some L has to split the things up for us.

I don't want this. I think it is wrong. It is against my core values. It will hurt my D. It can be worked out. It can be "fixed" I'm not in control. I can't do it alone. She won't join me. She can't let herself join me.

To me it's prudent. To me it's smart. It's being realistic. It's being proactive. It's something that must be done. Looks like it's inevitable.
