Just like the Led Z song, it has been so long it's not true. Now I find myself with mixed emotions AGAIN!! I have been hanging in for 1 1/2 years for W and OM to break off. After all this time I think it may be happening BUT, I felt this way before only to be ripped apart again and again. It is this feeling of a tiny bit of hope that keeps me from filing for divorce, even though I have the petition in hand. OM said (for the 3rd time) he "doesn't want her" and "we deserve each other". But he continues to attempt phone contact with W. W NOW says she has been "made aware" via IC that OM was holding her "emotionally hostage" and she can now deal with him by keeping no contact promise.

They (OM and W) haven't been able to break contact completely for a period no longer than 3 weels this entire time. W says OM eventually "sucks her in" to a conversation even when she hags up on him 6-7 times. My last post "OM called me" tells what happened when W refused to answer phone for last 3 weeks. But W has done this before and has always beed sucked in by OM.

I feel like sh@t. My next MC appointment is next Thursday. W and I are filing PPO's against OM too. Is this a light at end of tunnel? Or an oncoming train? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="images/icons/shocked.gif" />

What about plan A and B? If she screws up again, I say go with plan B. Have you done a proper A?

She is taking both you and OM on an emotional rollercoaster. Does she know you are getting off of it permanently if she starts the ride goin' again?

The PPO must not be because wW wants to get back OM who dumped her. Must be b/c there is no other way for you two to work things out.

Unfortunately the only way your wife will see that you are serious is to file for divorce. You can always stop the divorce process (if you want to). Meanwhile your wife will see that you are moving on with your life without her. This will be the wakeup call that she should have been given a year and half ago.
