Well, WW was served 2 days ago (actually OM recieved the papers while moving stuff into her apartment while WW was at hospital with DS & I).

Incidentally, she was served about 4 hours after she called my attorney looking for representation (they told her they could not due to a conflict of interest). She has seen the petitions, for D & Emergency hearing regarding custody. She has called a couple of times since then, I always send her to VM and then get the message, she sounds sad on VM. she has not mentioned the legal stuff, and neither have I, but now she seems to be trying to be the perfect mom.

Is this likely FOG, or is it possible that there is some movement in the near future?

No, that's not fog. (If that's what you are asking)

Boy, you sure jumped to plan divorce quickly.

Yeah, why so quick to divorce?
Seems you didn't even give ANY time for the fog to be seen, let alone get cleared up...

Have you read, "Surviving An Affair"?
Have you read what Plan A & Plan B are? If so, I guess you didn't like them?

If you were aware of my story, I had to file the action in order to get the emergency hearing regarding custody, and to try to get the order to prohibit OM from contact with our kids.

The D portion can go very slowly after that, I just need to protect our kids.

Yes, the "perfect mom" stuff, is she coming around, or just a legal manuever.

She is picking the kids up tonight at 7:30PM for dinner, I am positive it is this late because she has to take care of OM & his kids first, I think my kids see that too, cause she would never take them out that late, it was always 6-6:30 when OM was not here yet.

I hate the idea of the D, but I am kinda in between a rock & a hard place. Yes I've read SAA, and my Plan A has been limited to taking care of our kids, and an occaisional email or phone call. Plan B is down the road a bit still.

Hosea,

You are fine. I had to do the same thing with the custody issue. Of course, the D issue is still a long way off.

Just let it settle in. As she begins to have the heat turned up on her, she will begin to LB her relationship with the OM.

This IS a process!! You just took a step. Now, be ready to take the next one. You will get to where you need to be soon enough.

In His arms.
