I called my W and told her that I will give her a divorce on Monday if she allows me to get the cheaper car note. She refused saying You are not getting my car!" "I can not help that you can not afford anything Bro!"

I am emotionally drain about the situation. I guess I have to go to court now. I am so ready to go get this out of my life. I am trying my best to take the high road, but evil is what I fight about.

Yes, it is. My STBX cheated on me, stole, and then pretended during several false recoveries during which she maintained her love affair with OM.

She reinstituted the divorce proceedings then changed her mind a few days before the mediation.(after 2 mos of treating me and the kids like dirt) She Wanted to reconcile again. But low and behold she is cybering with the OM the night of the mediation hearings.

She has refused every sort of deal so far. She has threatened to try to get me fired, and LOL'd about it. (like she is going to get any money from me if I don't have a job ... good thinking) But she is plain blinded by her cruelty. She only wants what is fair ... which to her is that I support her for the rest of her life. Support the woman who betrayed her whole family for the rest of her life is fair?

It is kind of hard. If I could just get this boulder to the top of the hill ... but it keeps rolling down the other side. When will this torture end.

Yes, it is hard. Especially when you didn't want it to happen in the first place... I know I didn't... I still love my STBXH. He just doesn't love me the same. My STBXH didn't treat me equally. He treated me like scum, but I loved him???? I knew I deserved better, even begged him for things to change, but, I want it all back??? Just to have the rare loving moments? (when were they anyways?)

Time heals all wounds, and this scar will last a very long time...

Sounds like my STBXW too. I can't say I begged for change, I just withdrew. Still wanting the change though. And yeah... those oh so rare loving moments seemed to make it worth while. The once every few months when you felt wonderful, instead of like a mule.

I would have stayed in the M with that. But now that I've been cheated on and thrown out of my own home, made a visitor to my own children ... I won't choose to go back to that abuse.
