Wife Left Part 3

[CO1978]

Last night W dropped S off as she went to work. She asked if I just finished working out or something (was in sweaty clothes still) and if I was still losing weight, because I looked like it.

I just said, I'm not sure if I am losing weight, I am just working out as much as I can still.

I kind of ignored her because I was hugging and talking to S for first time in a few days, and really missed him.

Later that night W came to pick S up after work. He was sleeping. We had a decent conversation. She immediately began to vent to me about work and life living next door to her parents.

She brought up "when this is all over" (or variations of it) a few times. I acted "as if" and showed no different emotion to her comments, and did not comment back towards her divorce comments.

I complimented her on her hair (she wore it down, she always wore it up in a pony tail for work), "noticed" her new jeans, and when she said she stated about starting to wear her hair down for work but won't wear make up, I commented she didn't need make up.

I also in a subtle way made sure she noticed I was still wearing wedding ring (counselor told me to do this). I had taken it off after the counseling session on the 18th (I am pretty sure she noticed I did). My way of saying I didn't quit, without actually saying it.
