This is terrifying - I hope you understand

Mr. Bond:

Thank you for a very mild 2x4. The only thing I can add is that I suppose I resent being asked to do things that I think a husband should do, but I wouldn't do for just anyone. I want her to find a good job; resume' help is certainly OK (and something that I have offered others.)

I am concerned that her D playbook is impossible to crack. But that is just me having expectations. And I should know better.

My only disagreement with your analysis is that she often acts as if she is still my wife (makes dinners that I like, asks me how my day was, etc.); I need to understand that she is just trying to keep it civil (much like myself, but for differing reasons), mostly child-related.
