Ok, I am now starting to understand why some of the veterans on the board emphasize the need to have patients. I know it’s only been about 2 months that we’ve been separated but it feels like it’s been forever.

My son called me yesterday and I told him to hold on just a second because I was in the middle of something when he called. I came back to the phone literally 15 seconds later and he said, “what were you doing” (in other words, what was I doing while I briefly put him on hold). I know that isn’t the type of thing my son would ask. I told him I was juggling a couple things and then I asked him, why do you ask ?” Then I tried talking and I didn’t hear anything on the other end, he came back to the phone and he said he had me on mute.

It was quite obvious my W had suspicions to what I was up to (which was nothing). It really frustrates me that she would coach our S to use mute so W could tell him certain questions to ask me. My S is already having a difficult time with this. He doesn’t need these type of things going on. It’s also quite telling in the sense that my W is showing signs of possible jealously and insecurities. (It’s just messed up because she’s the WAS)

I don’t want this to be a consistent pattern. I just don’t know if I should let it go and forget about the incident or voice my concerns to her about it?
