Talked for 2hours after work. I thought things were going better, considering. I asked her about 3 things she had asked for near the close of our R talk

1. Do you want a greater separation? She said no.
2. Do you want me to sleep in the basement instead of the b'rm? I then added that I would if she preferred it, but I'd rather use the b'rm cause my focus is getting rid of stress, not getting back cramps and that she had initially wanted to sleep in the kids room.

The conversation broke down there with her concern over me locking the door for mental privacy during the remaining 8 days of semi-separation.

She called back to give yet another ultimatum: her & the M under her rules (no locks, spend time with kids) or end the M.

Threats, threats, threats. Nice way to help me deal with what felt like a near breakdown.
