Well my goal for the week, was to just avoid having an intense conversation, especially given papers are now in hand. I failed. She asked me about them, and when i would be sending them back. We apparently have a difference of opinion regarding some of the wording and things did escalate. There was no yelling so I'm happy about that. We talked about the marriage, but I did my best to focus on moving on, each of us working on ourselves to be happy, not re-hashing things. And we discussed the co-parenting issue and our differences. For the most part things were civil and I ended the conversation by saying this wasn't exactly helping and we have a lot to work on. I was upbeat as I walked away, we had been discussing one of the kids and were both chuckling about his morning. I was watching her throughout and saw body language and tone that at times was pulling away and finished with her at least interested and paying attention.

Fast forward an hour later and I can hear her crying downstairs. So I went down the stairs and asked her if she wanted help. She said no, so I came back to my office. Now about 10 minutes later she left the house and drove away. She didn't say anything.

Please, anybody out there. I need some help.
