In the interest of saving my friend Rob some time, I will post the following:
Come on, Mark!! You are focusing waaaay too much attention on your wife. Keep your focus on you and your kids. You are wasting time and energy trying to predict her motives for doing what she is doing. Continue to GAL, and stop worrying about what SHE does!!!!
Rob, you are welcome...
LOL, you nailed it.
Hang in there this week!
While it's true that I do NOT recommend you spend the time thinking about what W is or isn't doing, let me just say one thing: getaways with the OP don't always go as planned. Remember, this isn't two happy, well-adjusted, straight-thinking people off for a romantic vacation. At least one of those people is a whacked-out, MLC-ridden crazy person - things don't always go smoothly around them, as you know perfectly well yourself. If you've read my whole story, you'll know that my own W's week away from it all with OM was an absolute disaster (for which I am eternally grateful, of course). I'm not saying the same will happen in your case - but there's a really BIG spectrum between "romantic getaway" and "absolute disaster", so don't assume you know which end of the spectrum your own W's week will fall into.
