Yesterday when my W left work she called me. She used to do this everyday on her way home. She just said hi and wanted to know how our D was. I told her she was napping and that I was just watching tv. It was strange. Seemed like she was sad. Well I found out later when she got home(her night to stay there) she had a really rough day. She was getting reviewed at work, her manager was there all day, she has to go to another site and help out, she is leaving town for a funeral the rest of the week so she had to be caught up on everything and the death of her cousin plus our mess. She talked to me about it. Made feel good that she opened up to me. Made me wonder why she didnt call her new friend. I just told her it was a big load and that anyone would be overwhelmed. Told her I would make dinner so that she could get her stuff packed & ready for the funeral out of town. Made one of her & D's favorites. She realized she didn't have shoes for the funeral so I told her to go get some & I would finish dinner & hang out with D. She left & came back & ate. Told me how good it was & that she hadn't been eating so good lately. We then sat down & all three of us watched some TV. After the show was over she even invited me to watch another. She was concerned about leaving our D for so long & missing her. I told her she would be fine & that I would take care of her. (Wonder what she thinks it would be like if we divorced?). She also was concerned about getting to the airport at 4 am. Told her we could take her. I could get up early from my brothers & pick them up, she could stay at her dads & go with them or we could all stay at our house & go from there. It was her choice. Am I doing to much? I mean there was a death in the family & she turned to me. I feel if I didn't do anything she would just turn to her new friend for emotional support. I feel like I need to gain her trust back & let her know I'm dependable & this was a little of that.
