She sent me another text last night asking for more money for things, I sent one back telling her I just cannot do it all!

She phoned me back and said that she had a lot to pay out with her new house and that I needed to pay for more things for the kids, I said that I was in the situation and would help if I could.

She then said that I should have moved out and sorted my issues out then came back!!!, rather than not going and therefore forcing her to leave and taking the children from their home, I said that I didn't want to leave my family, I never expected that we would split, but I have to work on me to make things right.

She was fine about it and said that we needed to sort the money side out.

By the sound of what she is saying this split is a temporary situation until I can show her my changes, she has never mentioned divorce and never pushed that I sell the house, so I guess its all down to me now to show her the changes in me.

The kids were great last night we had loads of laughs and they kept telling me how they missed me and loved me, broke my heart hearing them say that.

It's was the first time she has actually spoken to me properly in a week and it sounds like the reality of everything is starting to hit home, so do I continue to make no contact and stay detached, or do I start contact and try and show her the changes?

But it sounds like there could be a future for us, but it's down to me to make it happen.
