Thanks Kaizen. I did try to ONLY execute it and I got hit with messages from her like "why are you ignoring me", ""you are so transparent on not responding to me", etc... and that is why i decided to tell her as much. I think we are good from here. Thanks.

Hi Sellout, shes just wondering why she doesnt have you wrapped around her finger. When she asks you "why are you ignoring me" you can just say you are focusing on you or i am learning to move forward.

I might even go as far as saying, "nothing much to talk about if you are still w OM .... or since we are separating" but only if you truly mean it and are headed that way.

I think your choice was a good one. You placed a healthy boundary (boundaries are for protecting yourself, not trying to control others) and now you must stick to it. You also made sure her final impression of you was a good one, keeping it light and happy reminds her of your good qualities. Truly she is a fool for leaving you.

I need a MAJOR hit with a 2X4!!! After the baseball game yesterday, we embraced in a hug, took a selfies together (that i was tempted to send to OM), and went to dinner together as a family. Had good times along the way and have been friendly today. Stupid!!!!!

Well so much for boundaries. She knows she has you wrapped around her little finger. Let me guess, you paid for dinner.

What is your plan moving forward?

Yep, paid for dinner. My plan...well not real sure. She thinks I am dating someone and that is somewhat serious (neither of which are true). However when she stated this I didn't confirm or deny which pissed her off. Its such a messy situation. She told OM she had dinner with me and he was pissed stating that he thought I was trying to get her back, etc... what a warped situation that I don't know how to get out of.

Sellout,

She is enjoying getting attention from both of you.

IMO you have one move. Starting now no contact other than if it concerns your son. Detach and GAL. Move forward with the divorce if she wants to stop it she will.

Hugging her and taking her out dinner when she is in an open affair makes you look really weak.

One day at a time.

You are sooooooo right. Its all about self control which I am obviously lacking. Uggggg, I hate this so much.

Don't beat yourself up. BUT, learn from your mistakes so you don't repeat them.
