Coparenting last night.
On the way I found trash OW left in the car. Mental note**take my own car next time!

I remained quiet to listen to H. (I talk a lot). He talked about his AA meetings. He said how some lost their family due to alcohol. That he identifies with their battles (demons). (he invited me and the kids to go to a meeting, potluck n all)

He talked about how S3 will ask him questions about the separation and H has googled how best to approach it with the kids.

On the way home he asked me what I thought about when his family wanted him to solve their problems. He would do this more before. Now he stays out of it. I told him that it bothered me a lot because WE are his family and he shifted the focus on us to focus on them. I commended him for changing this behavior.

It was good R talk. They usually happen after Coparenting counseling. They say that means we have a very good therapist.

I still can't get it out of my head that he talks about our separation as long term. (and OWs trash)
