I just told my wife that I am moving out. She would not really
look me in the eyes and she really did not say anything.

I told her that she should go back in our room and I'll take
the couch until I'm out, but she just said "I want you just to
leave." I said I will and that I did not tell the kids yet, but
will tomorrow. I then told her I was sorry for being snippy
the other night when she ripped that letter up. I said seeing
that really got to me and that's why I was annoyed. I told her I
just wanted to tell her that so I was not keeping in inside
and letting it build up into anger. She got pissed and said
"You're in my face too long, I hate when you pick on [censored] like
this" and I just said ok, I just wanted to let you know that
I will be moving out. She said "good, go live with your friend"

I know i should not have even said anything back, but I said "
I wish you would stop saying stuff like that, I have nothing to
do with anyone else and have no intentions of moving in with
anyone. She said "yeah right... it doesn't mater anyway I'm
going to be seeing other people" and then she stormed out.

I took the kids out to eat and when we got home she was gone,
so she went out again.

I mentioned going dark, but I'm not sure if that's a good idea
especially since she has felt neglected in our relationship and
the past month or so I have been here, but really we have
been avoiding each other. After reading some stuff on here about
going dark both positive and negative I am now leery about it.

For example:

"If you were guilty of being withdrawn and emotionally
neglectful during the R, it can be a "more of the same"
behavior, and could do more harm then good."

I don't want to do anymore harm. I feel now that if I go
dark it just might give her more motivation to seek out
other men.

Any advice here?

Yes - I know that I need to STOP getting into R talks!
