Yeah, she is getting irritated with me for sure I think. I haven't done anything negative to make her this way. I've completely backed off, no touching at all, and no ILY. I was out in the front room watching her get the kids ready for Halloween. I realized that the kids lunches weren't ready yet and so I jumped up and said "Do the kids need sandwiches made?" intending to make their lunches while she got them ready. She didn't want any help from me. She said she had plenty of time so I went and sat back down.
Then she was talking to my daughter and she was irritated with her and I was watching them in the kitchen. She looked at me and said "What?!" I shrugged and said "nothing..".. I was really just watching my daughter which was behind her. Yeah, I can feel the tension growing a bit each day.
I promise I will not be the one to start anything. If she tries to push my buttons I will not give in to anger or frustration. I will be strong, calm, and collected. If anything happens and she talks to me I will support her, listen to her, and be there for her.
