Sandi ..help me out here ...W left to go to work and take kids to school. I go downstairs and their dirty dishes - cereal bowls, etc still on the table. Dishwasher full of clean dishes not touched, etc. (and her fragile dirty wine glass that must be hand washed still on counter too). Well every morning I get kids breakfast and make sure they cleanup and every morning I empty the dishwasher (and wash her wine glass!), etc. Should i just leave everything so when she comes home it's still there as if I weren't living here or what?
Yesterday she tells me to move out because she said the psychiatrist told her she will then realize what it like to be on her own ..i wonder if that's BS. I'm not making her coffee and packing her lunch anymore. I feel like not getting the kids breakfast and packing their lunches either so she can feel what it will be like when she is on her own during those times she has the kids but I feel that's just wrong. I did tell her yesterday that I will pack kids lunches Monday to Wednesday and she can do Thursday Friday ...and she screams "Here we go again!...you know I have to get ready for work in the morning" ..I said when I'm out of town for work you pack them the night before ...she just rolled her eyes and gave me a look of disgust. I didn't want the discussion to escalate into an argument so I just dropped it thinking I'll do what's best for the kids. Living here with W during D process creates difficult moments on how to deal with certain situations but I'm not moving out.
