Thanks Jon. Since my last post I had the kids this weekend and it went great. As I may have stated before I had them each one day to give them the individual attention and hopefully alleviate the shock. From Thur-Sun when I was picking up and dropping off the kids each time she was VERY mean. Almost like she was a person a didn't even know. I know lost said I should post on MLC but I think my situation is a combo of MLC and WAW, although she wants custody of the kids and is still being a great mother. I think I will start a new group called TAH (Throwaway Husband...LOL). Anyway, I had my daughter on Sunday and she called that night and was totally nice to me and asking me crap like if I wanted leftovers from dinner when I dropped my daughter off the next morning.
I dropped my daughter off at 7:00 am so my wife could see her before she left, as she was going out of town yesterday. She was totally nice again and so was her mom (she is watching the kids while she is gone). I know this sounds paranoid but it;s akmost like she is reading my emails or these posts and has decided not to "play the game". When I was leaving she started to walk me out and I kept walking to the car and told her to have a good trip and I would talk to her "later", but I was really upbeat and happy when I did it. Well, NC yesterday or last night and it killed me but I made it. Hard thing is I doubt she will call this week because I suspect she is on to it.
It is just killing to wonder what she is doing and who she is doing it with while out of town, but I have no control over her actions and need to accept that.
The first week I was out of the house and last week I really felt like I had gained a lot of control over my emotions and now I fell like I am slipping backwards.
For what it is worth she has called me 9 out of 10 times since I left and I have only called about kid stuff. Regardless, I have been the one to get off the phone every single time.
