Quote: Hm. Okay, it sounds like the finances issue is resolved. She mucked it up royally. So, why are you revisiting it? Do you want her to pay you back? Are you trying to decide whether or not you will help her out with her bills? If you want to help her, help her. If you don't want to, don't. Am I missing the issue here?
Have you hit on her yet? Misteltoe still works this time of year, you know. What are you having a hard time figuring out with her? Her moods? Whether she loves you and wants to stay in the marriage? I mean, for now, it sounds like you have the answers you need. She's still in the house, she cancelled the court date...
Why don't you ask her out on a date?

The money stuff came up as part of my answer to PoePad regarding W's poor money handling. I guess I brought it up to vent. What triggered that may have been my snooping. I know, DR says don't do it. My cuz says to stop.... I'm the type of guy that tries to analyze patterns and such.
But on to your other questions. I would be lying if I said I didn't want the money she blew back. I don't ask for it. In her mind, she blew "our" money. She's always said what's her is hers and what's mines is hers too.
On to the other question. Negative on the mistletoe. The house was too full. We had a little vistitor over here. He was a hand full. W's mind is on the little visitor as he's about to leave town again. She will be in her funk again.
I know that sounds like an excuse, but when you have chaos breaking out on a constant basis with kids being kids, it's hard to make a move that will go to anything. After thinking on it a little over the past couple hours, I reckon I'm buying new scents and such to get her attention like the old days. I may try the date thing. In the past after awhile, it wasn't hard to ask her out. I'm all over the map over the last week. One minute, I want her, the next I want my cash so I can hit the bricks.
