Thanksgiving was a tough day. I took my son and went to my family's house. W called around 3 while I was there and asked if her makeup was in the car. I went and checked and told her that it was. She flipped out on me and said "great, now I can't go to my family's house even if I wanted to!! I hope you enjoy your holiday!!" I told her she had makeup at home and yes she could still go and to stop looking for reasons to get mad at me. And that's exactly what she was doing, looking for reasons to be mad at me.

I got home around 8 and carried my son in, he fell asleep on the ride home. She was sitting there eating a turkey dinner that her aunt had brought her. She hadn't gone out. I handed my son to her, she kissed him and told him she missed him today. Then she said I missed both of you guys today. I told her I missed her too.

She went to lay in the bed with our son so he could go to sleep. She had left her email open and I saw that she had emailed a realtor today saying that she was looking for a 2 bedroom house for her and her son soon.

Any tender moment that I thought I had had when she told me she missed me was gone, and it was right back to how it has been for the past 3 weeks.

I'm hurting. Does she feel the same way? How can she not?

That rule about believing nothing I hear and less than half of what I see is a good one. I try to always remember that one. But that email to the realtor sure did look believable to me.
