It's crazy that she's semi moving back into the house. Good for you - not shutting her down or encouraging her...just letting things flow along (as long as you are happy)
Your DB coach comment freaked me out a little - that when she stops complaining, she's stopped caring? Can you elaborate on that any? Isn't there a point where not complaining would mean she's realized how good you are/how good she had it versus being mad at what she doesn't get to do since she's left your family/the relationship?
I truly think you are in a good place, but am curious about that w/regard to your situation and my own. I shut down H's complaining very early in this and told him I didn't have to listen to him complain about my driving/which route I chose/other stuff like that, etc. I wondered if that is a male/female difference? He's commenting on our "adventures" just like your wife.
