My W and I were talking last night. She wants to go out to a jewelry party Saturday night. I was not ok with it, because, it's a ploy to get out to see OM.

When I showed my disapointment, she asked what the problem was and I mentioned that she's always gone. She has been working 7/day sweek for 6 months and we never see her. Now that she started her new job this week, 8:00-5:00 Mon-Fri, her time with OM is reduced!

I said you're always gone. You're either at work or running errands after work (seeing OM).

She said you want me home all the time. If I was home at 6:00, you'd want me home at 5:30!

I asked her to be home tonight by 5:30 so I could run to the bank after work. She said she can go to the bank for me during the day. She only said that so she can see OM after work and claim she worked a litte late.

I said I 'm available to help with errands and such.

That's when she said: "You've been this Father of the Year and Husband of the Year for the past several months and I don't know what to do with that or what to make of that person"!

Good sign? That's the first time she's mentioned anything about my behavior since I started DBing on 7/5/13!!

Then she said: "if you're going to say you've been available or willing to help out with this kind of stuff over the past sevral years, that's just a false statement"!

I said I can see how you feel that way. You're right about that. But I'm going to keep doing my best and I don't think there's anything wrong with that.

Then we went to sleep.

What do you think? What's my next move? Keep on with status quo? Start talking? What should I do vets?

Please provide some insight here. I think there's a crack in the armor!!!
