Another Waw

[Refuse to quit]

Things keep getting better or so they seem. Yesterday when exchanging the kids W was very pleasant. When I was dropping the kids back off to her she was in no rush at all to leave. She literally sat in the back of her car as I put the kids in and wanted to talk about the kids etc. The R did not come up at least by me. It did by her a little. She commented on how I have treated her and the kids and the fact that she feels like I have been extremely warm, positive, friendly, caring etc. to them. I asked her why she would expect anything different? She pulled the card and said "Because we are going through a divorce." I said "oh well that does not change things for me as far as how I treat someone," and I left it at that. I feel like maybe she has been thinking I would be a jerk to her or something and nice to the kids. Who knows. She ended up sitting there talking to me for about 45 minutes. I feel like the ship is turning but feel like we are turning the Titanic here. I even joked about one of her sisters and she was joking right along. I almost didn't do it because I thought it might seem like an attack but not after the reaction I got from her. I left wondering why we are still living apart and this process is proceeding. I guess if I am thinking this maybe she is too. I don't get to see her or the kids now for 5 days and plan to not call or have any contact during that time unless she initiates it. I feel like some of this things I have seen her do and say over the past few weeks here are things she would have never done a month ago. So I do think it is progress. Just wish all of this stuff would end and she would come back. The games are getting really old. I appreciate all of the advice guys and gals.
