Don't be so hard on yourself. smile You did do something right! You didn't engage her when she was angry.


You know what SG you are right. In the past I would have argued with her over it. I think someone posted a while back that its like there is a power struggle between us and that is something I don't know how to deal with.

Do you respect yourself? Do you like the person you see when you look in the mirror?

Yes I respect myself. I sure do like what I see. I'm not perfect but I'm becoming a better person.

Let her go. That will get more respect than anything.

Just got home from softball with my oldest S and my youngest S tells me my W has been in a bad mood ever since she came home from work. All I get out of her is one word answers to any question I may have and she says them with as much venom as possible.

At least it's not only directed at you Leopold. Too bad the youngest S had to endure her wrath though.

Have a good night for yourself. I really don't know what else to tell you.

Take care,

So the cold war continues. Yesterday I did not bother my W at all while at work. I did not call or text her and I didn't hear from all day. When she came home she didn't even acknowledge me until I asked her if she had plans. W pretty much said as little as possible. So I went out and did one of my GAL activities.

This morning she got up @ 6 and I asked what she was doing up so early on a Saturday her response was a very cold I have things to do.

I just finished reading Dobson's Love Must Be Tough and am wondering if it's time to apply some of what he speaks about. Thoughts and suggestions appreciated.

I find myself home alone tonight for a few hours. Both my boys are out and my W took off @ 7 this morning. She actually called late this morning to see what was going so that was surprising considering she hasn't spoken much to me since she said we are done. Also talked briefly earlier to discuss what our youngest is doing tonight. Gotta keep an eye on him he's at that age now. W doesn't know if she's coming home tonight.

Awfully quiet around here I feel like I'm talking to myself lol.
