Thanks fren.
I'm pretty much coming from the place that you've described. I'm going to start explaining how I've got to hand it to them- they've managed to hide the truth in plain site for many decades, and convince people that those who have seen and understand the truth are nothing but "conspiracy theorists, crackpots, wackjobs, nuts, etc", and how they've conditioned people to use their emotions to attack and destroy any chance of getting the message out. From there, I'll explain that, in this age of instant information, they can can no longer hide the truth. If they censor, another avenue pops up in its place. If they attack and take down that avenue, another appears. They can no longer hide the truth. I'll go on and explain that I'm just emotionally numb and almost dead that I either cannot explain it to her, or she's unwilling to even understand what is coming, explain that this is why I've been pulling away and haven't felt anything lately, and then put the ball in her court.
Due to her marriage, she's emotionally crippled, and for the longest time, I was sympathetic to that. No longer, however, as I feel now that I'm the one who has to pay for the sins of her ex-husband, and I constantly have to hear about him and his "whore", which just adds to my numbness.
I'm heading home now. Thanks to all frens here, who have kept me from losing it over the past few years. I'm not one who operates on "feels", but in this case, the human instinct cannot be suppressed. It's not misguided in this case, though.
