Thanks for the reply, Greek. I always appreciate when you stop by.

Who knows? Maybe not even your W. But really, her moods, her motivation, her options - are not your territory. Her behavior - what she actually does - is what you need to deal with.
I sure am trying. When she is disrespectful, mean to the kids, anything like that, I call her on it. Instant storm clouds in her eyes. I know that's where detachment comes in, I can't care what she does or how she feels about me right now.

The rest is a mystery and you'll make yourself crazy trying to discern all that.
So true.
It just seems like we are on the verge of something, good or bad, and can't turn the corner. I know I want to push it and make something happen. I am making myself crazy.
BTW, my W has always liked to talk and help people when they are down. I have envisioned she and I, together, helping people on here like yourself and Coach. It would be great therapy for both of us if she found this place. I would love to pay it forward on here with her. I know that's just wishful thinking and I'm getting way ahead of myself. Just something in the back of my mind that would be a blessing for both of us.
