my wife left, but still lives with me

[tough spot]

Well, we both still live in the house. Neither of us willing to move out. We have gotten along surprisingly well these past two days. It makes me suspicious

She knows i was going to talk to another lawyer, sometime this week. I actually spoke with the lawyer over the phone today. She has yet to ask me about it which is another surprise. Perhaps we are getting along because we aren't talking about the R.

It is awesome and painful at the same time. Even though we are getting along well, we are still 'separate'. Our closeness at this point can only go so far. Upon suggestion of my counselor, i have ordered two books to read. 'Driven to Distraction' a book about ADHD and relationships along with 'The Four Agreements'.

So I have been GAL'ing to a small degree but more just working on me. Maybe only I have been in a better mood, which happens when I am making personal progress (even outside this current situation). Perhaps our getting along better rests solely on that fact. Not her changing, but my perception changing.

Who knows, hopefully will continue........
