Separated, new baby, but still hopeful

[mindfull]

OK, so, is he always there during dinner time??? And, how often?

If it's only one or two days a week... why don't you make your nice dinners the nights he is NOT there, and maybe just heat up left overs the nights he is there, and just let him know there's plenty, without all the hype of a NICE, WELCOMING dinner...

Although, I'm torn on this one... Don't take my advice, just consider it, and weigh other ideas coming in. I give AWFUL advice!!!

Moi?

My H talks non-stop. He gets that fix from me... So, I actually started last weekend:

-- I'm only INITIATING conversation w/him if it's required re: kids or house

LAST WEEK

-- If/ WHEN he initiates conversation w/me, I am pleasant, cheerful, and I answer.

DURING THE WEEK WHEN HE WAS TRAVELING

-- No txts or calls FROM me.

THIS WEEKEND

-- He seriously pissed me off w/the raising of his voice, and being short w/me. I mean, seriously, jackload, I'm about as good as it gets, and I'm still being committed to you while you're being KING jackload, so back off! OK - Whew! That felt good. Sooooooooooo, this weekend, he's getting shortened answers if he initiates, and if he starts on a whole story, or something that looks way too friendly... like he just needs to hear himself, I excuse myself, nicely. (Oh, the laundry just stopped! Is that someone at the door? There's that txt I was waiting for!)

No more feeding his LL, when he doesn't f'ing know I have one.

Ok, done.
