Denver,
I have a question. What you're going through is exactly what I couldn't get over.

"I have to admit that I had some jealousy hit me when W was talking to this guy. I got a little irritated and W asked about it later. She asked if I thought that the guy was hitting on her. I told her that he probably was, but that he wasn't doing anything blatantly inappropriate. She was a little irritated with me and told me that I have to understand that music is her business and that she needs to try to make connections. That I have to trust HER... that it doesn't matter if I trust the person who she is talking to."


Always looking over your shoulder. Always wondering what shes thinking. Always slightly insecure about who she wants.


Can you really fully get over it? I ask with the utmost respect because I could not.


And I disagree. You don't HAVE to trust her. She needs to make you feel secure and earn your trust every day. How? She could have called you over and invite you into her conversation. Grab your hand or caress your arm while shes talking to him. Or a simple loving smile from across the room letting you know shes thinking of you.

This is not water under the bridge. She has work to do. VERY HARD WORK. And she needs to be diligent. I don't believe it will work if she continues to EXPECT you to trust her.

Good luck all and Happy Thanksgiving.

It will be my first holiday alone with the kids and I'm excited about it.
