[QUOTE="Mikey, post: 86059, member: 3579"] Deb. Funny thing is that wife didn't stop me from threatening to make him leave, and isn't trying to make him stay, either. There's a weird, sick feeling in my stomach that in her own way, wife is getting what she wants out of this as well - an excuse to break the relationship without feeling guilty. Maybe that's overly dramatic, but I can't shake that feeling. I don't know if I could have done it, but I even offered (to her) to completely back out of the situation and let her handle it however she saw fit; let him stay, let him drug, let him come and go, whatever. Her call, her responsibility. Nope, she wouldn't go for that. Her stance is "He's already leaving, do you really think he's going to beg and grovel to stay?" Hunh? That's not what I said, but whatever. End result is that she's thrown this squarely back on my shoulders, and refuses to engage and try to help out. What happens, happens, and it's all on me. And, for whatever reason, I think that's the way she wants it. I hope I'm wrong, and simply in the doldrums over the whole McWeedy thing, but I don't think I am. Guess I'll find out in January if/when McWeedy finally does pack up the few pathetic things he actually owns and leaves. Hoping for the best, but ready for everything else, I guess. In the end, I can't control her or her thoughts/actions any more than I could McWeedy. I'll just have to pick my way through the briars and keep my injuries to a minimum. Mikey [/QUOTE]
