Before you can make things better, you have to stop making them worse... Have you considered that being critical, judgmental, or invalidating toward the other parent, no matter what she or he just did will only make matters worse? Someone has to be do something. This means finding the motivation to stop making things worse, learning how to interrupt your own negative responses, body language, facial expressions, voice tone, and learning how to inhibit your urges to do things that you later realize are contributing to the tensions.

Final judgement: I get to keep my house.

I was amazed she had yet more lies, more blaming.

What reality was she living in, if any?

The judge's decision is largely based on the "credibility and demeanor" of the parties.

I guess he saw right through her.

Home was purchased with non-marital inheritance

and although I put her on the deed, she left me.

My lawyer prepared me well.

Splitting is a great resource.

Weekly therapy.

Temperance.

DBT,

and everybody here at dbpfamily.com,

thanks for being here and helping me understand

and survive divorcing someone with this very serious mental disorder.
