I had a great weekend with the Boys. we ate out, went to church together, swam like fools at the YMCA, went to the movies, attended S11's BB game, and just enjoyed being together.
Before the weekend, I talked with W during S13's BB game, sat right next to her and asked how she was doing, etc. I broke a DB rule and asked her why hasn't she divorced me yet. Here is how the conversation unfolded:
Me: so why haven't you divorced me yet? W: I don't know. (then she looks at me intently...), I don't know Me: So what should we do about it? I think this has gone on for a long time now. I love to be in the boys' life and I would like to know if you'd like to stay with me or call it quits. I think it's time we talk about this. W: Give me 2 weeks and I'll give you my answer. Me: OK. so on 24 FEB, we'll sit down and talk about all this. W: yes. 24 Feb, I'll tell you what I have decided to do.
So there, folks...24 Feb. I know I shouldn't have introduced a R talk. I broke the rules. In the spur of the moment I asked all of this. Now I am waiting while still showcasing the new Joel. Good or bad, I thought it was time to maybe get her actively thinking about all of this. So we shall see...
