" Passive agressiveness is just one of the arrows in my X2B's sling. In my case, she is at least going along with most things. For now. My best advice is my sole advice with regards to divorce - get a lawyer, get a good one. Make sure they are aware of your desire to get through the process quickly. If they tell you that it depends on the other side's lawyer, then fire them and get one who can cut through the crap.

Our X's begin to panic when they see their little power base crumble. That's when things get interesting. Hang on, girl. With good humor and good people around you, you'll get through the ride!

" And tell your lawyer what he/she will be dealing with.

Joybean said it perfectly when she said her brain doesn't work that way. I wonder everyday why he does what he is doing. Nothing makes sense. And all I keep saying is "I don't understand," and "I'm glad I don't understand because if I did, that would mean I thought like him." Strap your safety belt on because you are in for the rollercoaster of your life. "

" I am dealing with one that is highly manipulative. He power plays like crazy but I refused to play and it drives him crazy. I just don't talk to him unless it has to do with the children and even that is a challenge. "
