So, when I got up this morning, she was gone-she left out the back door. I'm not going to try to fool myself into believing that she misses me but I am hoping. I think this visit had more to do with my daughter.
I disagree. I think this visit had more to do with HERSELF. She was coming over to do the ol' "make sure everyone's okay with my terrible choices" thing.
You handled it very well, btw.
Your wife seems terribly anxious to make sure "everyone's OK," and that no one's "still upset" with her. I think you're going to have to deliver a TRUTH DART to her the next time she says/does this.
"No, we're not OK. We'll SURVIVE, but we're not OK. I have lost my wife and our daughter has lost the family she knew, and she's extremely confused and upset with you right now. And frankly, I find it incredibly selfish that you want to make sure we're "all OK" with your destructive choices. We'll get thru this, in some ways stronger than before, but please stop popping in to see if everyone's OK, just to make YOU feel better about yourself. It's transparent as hell, and (daughter's first name) doesn't need that right now."
