I have tried, I have taken several long weekend trips with friends. I end up spending way too much time wondering what she is doing and more importantly, who she is with. I have no proof that their is someone else and she says their is not but I just have that feeling. Maybe it's just fear of the fact that it would be a whole new level of pain to have to deal with. She is so bitter, she blames all of the pain and confusion she is dealing with on our relationship, mostly me. Although it all gets directed at me. On the posive side of things, with her staying gone so much, it has really made me and my youngest daughter really close since we end up spending so much time together.
