All I can say is SHEESH.<p>I just got off of the phone with the stbxw. I do not understand her even a little bit, as if ANY of us understand the stbx!<p>She talks to me as if I am her BROTHER, for gosh sake's!! She is so light and airey and pleasant that it makes me SICK to my stomach.<p>I am reading some posts here which make my story sound like a day at Disney Land, trademark (R), LOL, but my wife has still left me, she still does not love me and I will probably be divorced in less than 3 months. Again, SHEESH.<p>She is behaving like such a dope, it is unbelievable.<p>I am going to try to reply to posts where the post-er looks like they're having a tougher time of it than I.<p>Thanks, all, for letting me bend your 'ear'.<p>vb_guy

Sounds like you're doing a great Plan A if she can talk to you like that. Sometimes friendships can lead to more - remember you're trying to wait out the affair. <p>I really believe that if I didn't have divorce looming over me then Plan A really might have worked.<p>I know it's frustrating, believe me. And I certainly was not the best at it, but I could see progress at times.<p>Keep perservering. K

Feelings are valid guy, even the ones you think aren't important. I think it is nice to have variety in our situations, we can all gather some perspective that way. I was just telling a friend how funny it is the way people behave, like nothing had ever happened.

You know, sometimes I talk to my x that way - and have for a number of years - in a light way (though I try not to tell him about my life unless it is something that will profoundly affect the children) because it is the opposite of how he talks to me. And I think it annoys him a bit. And it keeps me from getting mired down in anger and resentment.
