The continuing story of the Lake Erie Shore

[Neilh23]

the books are kid oriented..."It's not your fault Koko Bear" and "Dinosaurs Divorce"......LOL....the 2nd one is the one that really hit where it hurt LOL...

i can tell she's pulling back a bit. she's not too keen on taking the kids to the county fair now....again, because she doesn't want them to expect something dramatic when the four of us are together.

we actually didn't talk about our R too much. She told me that i can't keep beating myself up about it.... iwanted to tell her why, but held back...alot of it i just expressed that i was frustrated.......but didn't go into any specifics....it's like i needed to tell her that.

My W said all the time the kids were not a reason to stay together. I would imagine the reason your W is pressing with the co-parenting books now is that she isn't happy. She isn't happy with the way the kids are adjusting and figures the co-parenting will "fix" that. Part of the reason she isn't happy is because of the good time the four of you had as a family and realizes that it felt good.

the adjusting thing...yeah..she's said that....i wanted to blurt out "well the best thing for them is for us to be together..." again, but didn't.

overall i felt like i held back alot....just sorta listened and validated.....actually brooded was more like it. i knew if i started in...i was going to go off...so i stopped.

tuesday.

at least i can go to the gym later.....
