I had my first appointment with IC today (My wife had suggested that I make an appointment last week). He was surprised by how well I understood my sitch and thought that my actions were appropriate and well thought through. I told him about this site and how helpful you have all been (he seemed amused by the fact that there's a group of people sharing there thoughts and experiences on these matters). Anyway, he said I was accepting way too much of the blame; that my wife needed to accept her share too.
Speaking of which, the wife emailed me today; it was nothing important. Should I answer her? She's been calling, too. I haven't been answering. I don't want to be rude, but I was clear; I asked her not to call me. I'm in enough pain. I'm trying to detach. Should I return her calls?
