detachment is very hard WFM. Take it day by day. Personally I have days where I am very detached and then I have what I call bad internal detachment. I try to never have bad external detachment days. Letting W know she is getting to me. If you're truly detached you live life and really don't care what spouse is doing. (with unconditional love). It is a balancing act. You would be able to detach better not working with him at all. It is almost the same as living under same roof when it comes to time spent together.
