Gunney we still living together but she sleeps on the couch downstairs. It is really hard stuff. I leave home at 7 and get home at around the same time. So I'm gone most of the day. We eat together and than I watch tv or palay vidoe games with my D or alone. W is usually working in her office she has always done that so with have space. Weekends is another matter. I try very hard to either due stuff around the house or go fly my model planes, take a ride to the ocean etc.... When she is around me I try not to look at her, stay away from her space. I do ask her if there is anything she needs help with around the house. I have always helped around the house so it is nothing new. maybe I should stop? This Saturday I will be volunteering at the airport all day so very excited. I also got an Iphone and spend lots of time reading from this site. I really try to leave her alone, talk more to my D, leave the room I'm in when she enters, not abruptly though. I try to be laid back, and not corral her. Some nights I shut my bedroom some nights I leave it open. I know it is really hard but we have to do the best we can with what we have. My W also spends alot of time at the barn so there are times when I'm home for about 3 or 4 hours that I have to myself. Sounds nuts right?
