Need some help, STBX wants to try now.......
Post Body

STBX and I filed for divorce two months ago. We've been co-parenting good together so far.....last week she says she wants to talk. We meet up.....she says I think we are making a big mistake. I said I am at a loss of words and chose not to really respond in any manner aside from that.

Backstory...married five years, together 7......the last two years were awful. We had multiple miscarriages after our first child. She fell into self isolation mode and basically lived separate lives under one roof. Tried counseling with multiple counselors, went nowhere. Now, she says she wants to try is just a total mind f$ck..

My gut tells me if I chose to go back it would only be a matter of time until she starts pulling her bs with me. She chose to sleep in a separate room for two years. She chose to blame me for not being there enough for her. She chose to put little to no effort into reviving our marriage.

My daughter struggles with us not being together but its only been a couple months. On top of everything....I am almost certain she tried calling my plates in to the police saying I was drinking and driving right before we separated. Who does that to someone they apparently love?

Bottom line, she just wants to go back to a cushy life only for us to fall back into ambivalence is my opinion. If it didn't work out I think it would have an even more traumatic impact on our child. Anyone else deal with this type of situation before?

Some people make better friends than partners. After 30 years my parents divorced. Horrible marriage and awful to each other. After the adjustment and cooling process, they started talking. Eventually they could be around each other without fighting. They became great friends and did lots of things together for the grandchildren. They decided that things were going so well that they should get married again. I was the only one against it. Within a few months everything was bad again.

Things worked after the divorce because they had separate corners. I knew that as soon as they got back together it was going to be more of the same. I did also make sure to remind everyone that I told them so.
