I have to see my stbxw who wanted the divorce. She is very good at manipulating me, always has been. Anyone have any strategy for remaining strong in the face of tears, begging etc.?

Remember who you are.
Keep your pride.
Keep yourself.

#1 remember she's the one who wanted the divorce. #2 Aren't you men supposed to be stronger than us women. Don't let her get to you. If you let it get to you, you enjoy being manipulated by her. Why are you getting the divorce?

Yeah, focus on what tears, begging and passive-agressive manipulation does to your respect and interest in the other person.

Why do you HAVE to see her? Obviously she divorced you for something or someone who probably couldn't deal with her crap either. Do you want sloppy seconds back now?

Maybe you still love her if you are so easily swayed back to her, because if you were truely that unhappy with her then it would be much easier to say NO.
