WAW1 - Anticipation

[markhaving probs]

Thanks PM,

I think I just need reminding sometimes.

I think you are spot on with your views on how she feels, this is why it is so important to get a womans standpoint. She probably is pissed off because of what she sees as an awakening, moving on etc, and it is the first time I have seen or heard any reaction from her since the bomb dropped. Whether it means anything, who knows, but the big thing for me is the enjoyment I am having with my children.

I must admit, I do not/have not at any stage tried to see or tell her what I have done for the children unless she asks. I am not looking for a proclamation or a pat on the back from her as it looks as though I am trying too hard to be a good dad and that is not want I am trying to do. As you have said, try and be the best dad you can, and I hope I am starting to do that.

By the way, I have taken your advice on voluntary work and I have offered to become the school Treasurer at my daughters school and where my son will go in the summer. I have also offered my services at the PTA meetings which I have been invited to. It might sound daft but I am feeling a tad better in being able to put something back, particularly as my childrens school.
