NoCode, WOW, she knows how to bait you...and you know how to jump to the bait!! Isn't it awful, those vicious little cycles we all (as married people) have? Button pushing at its worst.....

S6...sigh....S6....I am so sorry. My D5 is actually almost 6, and I know she would see/be reading soooo much more into an actual separation if it happened. They are so much smarter than we realize. Your poor S. And yes, I totally agree, while I firmly believe that right now, I am ONLY working on this marriage because of the kids, I can also say if my H in any way fails our kids, that is unforgivable. Like you, I can find it somewhere to forgive (eventually) the wrongs against me, but never my kids.
