WAW tearing up our family

[ironMan]

So, Monday was the Bday + truck fiasco.

Yesterday, I let W know that I'd be home late because I was going to do some work on a side project with a buddy of mine.

She called 4 times during that to tell me various things and texted 4 times.

I got home at 10, and did some things upstairs before going down to where she was.

I let her know that I'd be out late again tomorrow night because it was my last week at this job and I was going to have dinner with all my colleagues on Weds night. She was shocked and a bit miffed. And, I didn't care.... previously I would've been torn up by upsetting her and having to be away from her and the baby. But, being away from somebody who wants to leave you really isn't very hard. GAL-ing is fun!!

We talked and visited very nicely for 30 mins or so. I kept having to pause the TV so she could talk to me.

Then, I told her I was going to bed.

I have been controlling pretty much every interaction. I can tell it has her on her heels. And, whatever comes of this ... I feel pretty good and DB-ing and reclaiming my masculine energy has saved me.
