Living apart 6 weeks in

[Rockwallaby]

Well that was a horrible day, missing dinner with my 5 year old. WAS thinks it would upset the children if I came, that they would want us to stay together. She was not upset to see how WA hurts them.

I explained my POV and said she will need to explain why I am not there to the children. I know she will duck this question from the children. I should have let it go but pushed it and she said I was using emotional blackmail and bully her. I don't feel I do but must learn to understand what this is and not do it.

So I am taking the children for afternoon tea tomorrow and licking my wounds. It hurts and is hard so going to go for a long bike ride tomorrow morning as training for my 100 mile ride in London.

It hurts and I need to focus on positives rather than anger at missing dinner.
