{{Kristi}}, I have a great example for you - it seems like you and I are going through the exact same scenario with 'dropping the rope' or whatever it is where you detach.
I have not had any contact with W for 5.5 days. I think there was a couple of texts where she called to talk to kids, and told me she had stomach flu, and that was it.
She came today to get the kids for our first Christmas apart - wouldn't even look at me, let alone talk to me, mad because I wouldn't let her come get them early.
She left, and I was sitting here staring at my phone thinking I should probably text her "Merry Christmas" or whatever. I didn't. Instead I got on here, and vented. Feel much better!
Two weeks ago, I would never have been able to not say anything. I'm waiting on her, and as I always say, she's either an evil robot with no emotions, or she'll call me!
