Divorce Support Forums: Lawyer is wifes ex/new boyfriend.

Lots of questions...Thanks! You guys are right, drinking doesn't solve snot and is a really bad idea considering the circumstances. I haven't drank much in years, and you guys got the opportunity to hear me rant after a fabulous two day bender.
On a more serious note. They were together before her and I met about 6 years ago. About 2 years into our relationship (we were not married yet) She left for about 4 months and tried to rekindle things with him. I didn't work out between them,and she took me back.(mistake numero uno) Now we are divorcing and about 5 days after I left they started seeing each other again. Its very strange, they are head over heels for one another and of course this makes me feel very unworthy or something to that affect. He is helping her one way or another because she will not talk to me, only texts and emails and what she writes is so obviously coached. I have only wanted to speak about our son, I have seen him once the day before Christmas...he is almost 2.
I believe this guy is a public defender for Maricopa. That would be Phoenix, so I suppose he is quite busy. Yes, I am bitter, she can get advice or representation for free, from someone who is going to make it personal, and no he definitely does not want us to reconcile anything!
I am honestly surprised, I am an artist and think with my emotions way to often, everyone here already saw that, following your emotions blindly will get you in trouble every time...
:wink: ;). I just figured him to be a very smart man from what I have seen, I am just surprised he would fall for her lies (there are many, she seriously has a problem) and manipulative behavior.
This marriage had everything, lies, infidelity, abuse. Did I mention lies? I know, I know this is the one side you are hearing, but I was faithful, did not lie, supported her through the rest of her college degree (I dropped out for a year so she could finish, it was supposed to be my turn now) But now she has the cushy job, dating her dream man and I am living at my mothers house!
Anyhow, the day I left I filed domestic violence charges against her. I know there are people who will think that is a bunch of crap, but she had sent me to the hospital twice before and I never said anything. The day she told me she wanted a divorce, I said that is fine, could we clear the air about some things in our marraige. She knew I was asking her about her other boyfriend.(not the lawyer) I sassed back, shouldn't have done that. Anyhow, she kicked my ass while I was holding our son. Tore my ear and scratched my face up with her nails. So yeah, I called the cops. They took photos and it took a while, but the detective on the case told me Friday that the state is in fact pressing charges.
Is this going to have any impact on the divorce? I just want this to be over with, she is such a horrible person. So ashamed of myself for being so stupid and putting up with her garbage for so many years. Again thanks for the help guys, I appreciate it.
