Help, it seems my 35 year old wife is in MLC #11

On a funny note, I tease the kids when they say they don't know if they want to spend the night, I will say "I will spend the night with your mom in your place". That always gets a chuckle from them.

I do see her getting closer to our children. I have also seen other signs that, although she doesn't allow me to be close to her, that she is bring material and "live" objects closer to her. She was wearing a Christmas sweatshirt I gave her several years ago when I saw her earlier and she wants our cat (I gave our cat to her seven Christmas' ago) in her apartment. She has the teddy bear that I gave her about 8 years ago and many other things.

My W is not at all consistent as far as I can tell. She'll call the kids 3 days in a row and tell the kids that she misses them and that she loves them and then she will do something like this or tell them that she is going to be busy and won't call them. (To me there isn't many places in this world where there isn't a phone and 5 minutes in a week to call your kids.)

W was suppose to take our cat when she moved out but then she came up with ever excuse why she couldn't (All crap, she just didn't want to) so I still have the cat and the dog here. We have had the dog for 10 years and she is an animal lover. She would get the dog to lay on the bed with her every night when she went to bed. She hasn't asked about the dog once since she moved out. Although she may have asked the kids. Also, I'm pretty sure that she took a picture of us on our honeymoon when she moved.

Wow! She is saying a lot here. Do you think, and I think we talked about this before, that she has distanced herself from you and the children because she knows she is not healthy for them?

I'm not sure, but I don't think so. I think she is just running. I also still come back to her following the life of bad friend. Interesting though, the other day she was speaking like she hadn't talked to bad friend in a while. I'm sure you know this, but in my case bad friend is not OW.
