Detaching doesn't mean you can't have conversations with her, especially when she intiates.

It means you've reached a point where HER state doesn't cause YOU to get in to a state.

She continues to pull away in my book. Not wanting you to go to the party sounds like her not wanting you there, despite the excuse of your sons game. Still, I would not go and take son.


Don't push her away out of hurt, even though it's hard not to. Try to validate the feelings she expresses, but don't feel as though you have to agree with things that you feel are wrong. "I'm sorry you feel that way," is a good response to something she says that you don't think is right.


Blessings,
