I think that having to see her actions in my face every day is tough. There are some days I think I could work on me a lot better if it were just me and the boys. Giving her space us more difficult because, as FY stated, we still run the house and the family stuff together.

Example: Went to S12 bball game tonight and sat with W for most of the game. She was texting away at one point to OM (confirmed, not assumed) and was so engrossed that she missed S12 in the game for almost 2 minutes of game time. Completely oblivious. Continued after the game when we went to eat with group of friends. I'm talking and listening to a friend across the table and W is completely detached from the entire table of convo because she has her cell in her lap wearing it out. I wasn't the only one to notice. She had to be called mtiple times to attention in conversation. I asked her 3 times how the green beans were and she hasn't heard me yet.

I have to see how she dresses for others every day. I have to wash the sexy undies that she would refuse to wear for years.

I have to walk around my own house with a ticking time bomb that could go off for no apparent reason at any given time.

If we weren't under the same rough, I understand the challenges are different. I wouldn't be comfortable thinking about her sleeping anywhere else. I would worry about her safety constantly. I would have 2 boys that would be even more strained than they are now.
