W initiated talk this morning. She told me she & kids are moving out end of month, said she filed for support order because she's afraid I'm not going to give her money. She said she could withdraw the order if I would go to mediation and give her what she is legally entitled to. She said she see's and appreciates how I've been acting lately and she's happy about it, but she doesn't want to live like this anymore. She's not mad I moved back and she's happy that I can stay in the house while she lives a mile away. She's happy we've been co-parenting well together. She want separation, mediation, and D.
She said she doesn't trust me after all the things I've done.
I said alot of things I probably shouldn't have. I told her trust and love are decisions and that if she doesn't try to trust me, she never will. Same with love. I told her I just want her to be happy, but that I'm under alot of financial strain right now and since she's getting a raise, she should be able to pay her own rent. I said ok, let's do a separation, but not D right away, give it some time. She said we already have and she wants D. She said I have control issues and I said WE have control issues.
I know I should have kept my mouth shut.
How do I proceed? Give her mediation, separation & D ? Ask her for separation and mediation without D for a time period?
