How can one tell the difference between cake eating and confusion?
I am so close to finalizing the D. STBX lets me know that his attorney told him it could be done by the end of the month, but then he wants to know if it is really what I want. i explained that I fought for the M and he walked out that I have been given no other options. He is the one with the GF (This is not the original OW). I asked him what he wanted and I get no answer. He mentioned that was this life the one I wanted for our DD. Hello- idiot I wasn't the one that screwed around and messed up our family. How can he ask me this?
Anyway a week goes by and he never mentions it again and is hot/cold to me. Then this Friday he comes over to pick up DD and couldn't keep his hands off me.(very sexual joking with inappropriate touching). So finally he leaves with DD and when he brought her back it much more of the same. Later did I realize that he had spent the day with DD and GF.
Does anyone else find this sick? Time with me and then GF and then me and probably GF again in the evening.
He wants out of the M so bad so why play these games. Thank goodness I have gotten stronger that I don't fall apart like I used to, but it still brings that twing of hope back. Should I be hopeful? I am continuing with the D because I am tired of waiting and watching my life pass by. But his behavior still confuses me.
Does anyone have a clue what to think?

Dear LuckyStar,

I can't say your WH is showing a lot of respect, not for you, not for his GF. Is this the sort of man you want back into your life? Will being with you again suddenly change him?

I feel this guy needs to get some responsability and realism into his life. Are you prepared to wait for that to happen - if it ever does? Is he normally rather unresponsable and selfish (except for his A)?

I hope you can be strong and make the right decision so you can get on with your life, my dear.
