Thanks ninelives! I'll "man-up" in front of her. In fact, I learned enough on this forum yesterday to avoid the tears in front of her this morning.
The MC was my idea. She mentioned that she considered IC but hadn't yet seen anyone.
We went for a walk together last night but I really feel the tension. I'll be nice and devote myself to activities with the kids and projects around the house. I'm afraid she'll dismiss these things of acts of desperation rather than a new focus on life and family. I really look forward to practicing the steps in the book. Thanks again for the help.
