You have to balance giving up and keeping on trying. It's hard but I've come to realize that this is the only way I can make it through the day. Yes I love my wife and I would kill to be back under the same roof as her but I also know that at this point it's not my choice to go forward with the relationship. I've stopped trying and started living. I make the most of the time we do share together. I took her and the kid to breakfast on Sunday. It was a great time but I'm not scheduling things with her. If it happens it happens if it doesn't yeah it sucks but no need to let it ruin my day. If she shows signs of wanting to work things out I would be there in a heart beat. I also know that the chance of that happening at the current time is very slim. Now who is to say it may or may not happen down the road. I'm just not going to let it rule my life or decisions. I say enjoy your somewhat "singleness". Go on a vacation to some place she wouldn't want to to (yes I have tickets to the most of the Rangers games for the rest of the season my type of vacation). Buy a new TV and an Xbox 360 (it's for therapy I swear). Just do something for yourself. I see this as a time to somewhat enjoy. No pressure to date and no pressures of day to day marriage (just that overwhelming feeling of impending doom ... great isn't it). Enjoy your reprieve just a little. Just don't go out and start dating quite yet. It's not worth it. I swear women smell blood and they are coming out of the woodworks to try and get me to go out. Thank God for that 360 it keeps me from getting in trouble. Like my dad always says life sucks get a helmet. Just protect your head and keep it in the game and everything will be fine.
Well I'm off to enjoy the wonderful Texas weather it's going to be 104 today. Nothing like managing an un-airconditioned warehouse in Texas in the middle of July.
