Taiko and NeedsSupport thank you.

I think the hardest thing is learning patience (where have I heard that before). One of my problems is that she works long hours, comes home at 7.00 p.m. and by that time I have fed the kids and collected them from school, so don't really feel up to much (energy levels sapping!).

She was angry at me last night and I didn't react (probably that will initially make her angrier, but what the hey).

Trying not to think of OP, but damn hard. Find I'm checking phone records and trying to sneak peaks at her mobile (MUST STOP THAT - hurts only me).

Going to counselling next week, so nervous about that.

In answer to your question, NeedsSupport, we've done the talking and I'm doing the 180 (damn it's hard). She states that she wants to be happy and have time apart, but I'm the one that has to leave (if I didn't care about the children, I probably would), so still stuck under same house.

Going to scream for a while and then pick myself up - good friends are helping.
