I am glad to hear that you experienced someting along the same lines, Spartan...or maybe I am not crazy

Our wives sound very similar in that regard. Your hunch about them being able to define the story how they want is probably accurate. However, my wife has re-friended some girlfriends that she literally tossed to the side during our separation because they did not agree with her actions. They still do not.

My wife was texting me today more than she has in YEARS....some if it borederline legit stuff about D...some of it idle chit chat. I replied in short and friendly text. Towards the end she wished me a good day and I replied...Then she continued to text. Ultimately, I said, "I should probably pay attention and drive, talk to you soon maybe" and ended the conversation. I am assuming she was maybe bored and had nobody else to reach out to. I am not going to ready anymore into than that.

Since her texts, she has already phoned to speak with D again today. It is my week to have her. W literally dropped her off at school only 4 hours prior. I am really starting to feel like she is maybe starting to overstep her contact with D while she is with me. We will see how the next few days go, but if she ends up phoning every 4 or 5 hours, I think that may be a little too excessive. If she can't go any longer than that without contact, I would say she didn't think her idea for separation through enough. Of course, I don't want to hinder her interaction with D, but does anyone else think I should perhaps discuss this with her if it continues. TODAY, it is no problem at all. However, if we do legally separate or divorce, I don't think that will be acceptable to me to be calling several times a day, every day while D is with me. What do you think?
