How do I communicate with WAW who is "checked out"

Hey Alex, sorry you're here. There must be something in the water around here, I'm from Brookfield.

Definately try and isolate it from the kids as best as possible, sucks you feel you have to live a lie, my W just up and left and like a light switch my kids went from mam and dad, to mom dad and mom's OM. So it could be worse. Coming from a family situation just the same myself, I know what my kids are goign through and it sucks.

You have the vantage that she is still in the house and it sounds as though you're starting on the right path. Take care of yourself and post here, just don't beg, plead, cry, whatever, I know it's hard but, if you do, it'll only get worse.
