My WAW and I separated on 1/6/07. She is leaving town for the MLK holiday and asked if she could come over and make dinner for me and our 17S. She also asked if I could watch the dog at my house. Both requests sound reasonable so I said yes.
I am trying to go dark but it is difficult because of our S. After thinking about the situation should I have told her to find her own babysitter for the dog? She filed for D on 11/20/07 and I am concerned that she is really not finding out what it is like to be on her own if I keep helping her.
She has maintained our joint account for payment of her bills and I am thinking of telling her to start managing her own finances. Even though she initiated the D she is being very tentative in the separation-should I tell her "look you started this-now finish it" or is my willingness to be supportive and respectful of our relationship with our S undemining my DB efforts.
