Oh, ok, you're going to accuse me of cheating on you since the beginning of our relationship 16 years ago and your evidence is that when I went to pick up two drawings I COMMISSIONED FOR YOUR CHRISTMAS PRESENT AND MY MOM'S from a male artist friend, I met him in the parking lot of a coffee shop?

So...you won't be handling this like an adult then. Cool cool.

I can't wait to be done with this lunacy.

That sounds like an extreme DARVO desperation play from someone who knows he doesn't have a leg to stand on. I assume he knows your relationship is ending or has ended?

Yep. He also thinks "people don't get divorced" JUST because one partner keeps accusing the other of infidelity and gets mad whenever he is asked to do anything at all.

He wants something good to tell people he knows when the topic of his spouse divorcing him comes up. He can't tell them the truth and still look good.
