Title: need some advice
Post by: dickL on September 16, 2013, 03:17:49 PM
uBPDw of 35yrs childhood sexual abuse, repeated failed romances while married , lies to cover , blames me for all etc . she started with new T 3wks ago and I fear she is manipulating her T . w has been in more than one violent episodes w/other men's women ,suicide attempt, has unprotected sex, and lost her jobs . she fits 10 0f 10 in BPD rating but her T assures her she's not that ill. I did a stupid thing recently which hurt her feelings and I apologized telling her it was a me problem and I needed to work with my T on it no,dice war returned , she went to dating sites and then lied when I confronted her . her past is her present . I piss her off and she runs to a man , then the infidelity is my fault. she has no empathy and will not "grovel" with apologies to me. have no $ to divorce . I think 40yrs of repeated dangerous behavior that could be life threatening would make her T take her illness more seriously

If you don't have kids, most states offer the divorce forms free, you just pay filing fee. I've printed mine and have them waiting for my decision.

I have been told if you're on public employee retirement  requires court to divide it between parties, we had a dissolution signed and filed last feb. I dressed up and went to the magistrates office met w/my att and waited for her to show and end this disaster , she didn't show and thought we'd discussed working our problems out and she thought that's what was happening. the truth was I went to court to end it and there had been no discussion of reconciliation. it was obvious that I got dressed , drove 40mi to court to drop it ,no, that can be done by phone. she lied to confuse the facts .we have a special adult son living w/us and it all is so hard for him , she used to use him in her boyfriend skeems as there "uncles"and sent him with them. bring men in our home while I worked with our son present, she assures me nothing happened in our home , right! she's so BPD it's sad.

Wow, I'm so sorry. I feel for you. I basically just told mine I don't care anymore and to do what he wants. I don't think he realizes that works both ways... .In Missouri I do know the forms are free. Just have to pay filing fee of $135.00 An adult child should not pose a problem. Not sure about the state you are in.

Mine just walked out the door because I asked who he drank with today when he was supposed to be meeting a customer. He questions me constantly, I've never given him reason to think I'd cheat. I just did what he does to me. He doesn't like it. I told him he wins, I don't care anymore... .

We will see if leaves with that. I wish you the very best of luck.
