W has cut off contact with most of her family, all of her old friends and my family. My neighbor mentioned she pulled up beside W the other day at a stop sign and W immediately turned her head away in shame (or whatever) when she saw who it was.
Neighbors are shocked that we are going through this. We spent so much time going on walks together, spending time at the park w/ S, etc.
Looking back, the focus of our family was our S and not our relationship w/ each other.
This happened b/c of money problems (her spending, my conservative planning), hectic work schedule for me, lack of career ambition on her part and more.
