Honestly, I'm not sure I'm doing all that great - maybe as a dad I'm doing OK. However around W I'm not sure what I'm doing. For e.g. W sent some pumpkin pie home with D using her as an excuse (i think) that she wanted to bring it. She makes killer pies and this one was no different. I thought about telling her how good it was but I didn't. Should I have?
Today I went to pick DD up from her girl scout class, W had brought her there from her school. I walked in, she waved and I waved back with a generic smile. I decided not to walk all the way over to her. She came closer and told me they're still playing and stuff they colored is drawing. I just noded and said 'oh ok' then turned to watch DD as she was playing. W stood a few feet away (not too close) then she walked away talking with the other parents the rest of the time while I stood there by myself. Then when D was done (20 mins) I called her over and told her we were ready to go home, she walked over and gave W a hug who then came over and asked me if I wanted to bring a few of the colored doo-dads home, I just said "sure" took a couple from her hands and walked out talking with D.
I really am not sure how to act around her, I think she probably sees me as if I'm angry at her. Quite frankly I fight with the decision of whether or not I want to reconcile. I worry that she won't change and she'll keep fleeing whenever she wants to. I'm confused.
