"Hanging in there" is all I can do right now, and I know I can do it. In regards to a potential OM...I don't think that's happening at all...for the time being it's not a concern. My W simply doesn't trust me yet and thus not willing to truly work on our relationship. My FIL told me this evening to just be patient...my W will eventually come around...be cool and enjoy the kids.
This evening was my son's first soccer game and I'm the team's head coach. We had a blast...we won 8-4. The in-laws came to watch also. I really do have great in-laws and they both want our marriage to succeed. I made it a point to smile throughout the whole match. My W was taking photos and I noticed she took several of me...she's observing my every move. Having fun with the kids was job #1 for me.
After the soccer match, my FIL and I went to Publix to pick-up something for dinner. I mentioned Retrouvaille to him and he responded with much hope. Good friends of his went to this program several years ago and it saved their marriage from the brink of divorce. He offered to watch the kids while we're at the program.
Sandi: I love your example of the office dude. I did that very same thing to my W this morning...it was great and I laughed about it as I was pulling out of the driveway. I love your suggestions.
I have alot of fun stuff planned for the weekend. Tomorrow the kids and I are going to the Kennedy Space Center (the W said no to my invitation...her loss). I'm golfing with my buddies Sunday morning.
I'm feeling really upbeat this evening...
