Wife having emotional affair part 4

[3kids]

Hi all, just posting because I'm bored at work. Haven't heard from the wife in three days. No texts no calls, not even to the kids. Kids said OM doesn't come into town till after Christmas. So don't know what's up with her. I hope she is really thinking over her choice maybe to quite school, that would be a real shame. To through away that much time and money. I can't lie I'm kinda really worried about her. She is one of those people to fly by the seat of her pants. And to not hear from her or for the kids kinda worries me, on her depression and anxiety. I'm sure her family would call me if there is something wrong with her.

I have been having a great time with the kids. Right now I wish I could talk better with my 12 year old. He is really angry and every word that comes out of my mouth we argue about or he yells about. So I have tried to stop, once an argument starts, I stop talking and he gets mad and goes up to his room. Last night he came out for dinner. The other two kids and I where making cookies and he came out decorated four and went back up to his room. I think this Christmas is really bothering him but he is never one to open up about anything. Wish I could figure out how to talk to him better.

The daughter let out some feelings last night at bed time, which she hasn't done in a long time. She wants to wake up with both of us. But she knows it isn't going to happen as long as mom has OM(her words). Makes her sad.

Even the little guy is acting a little out of sorts. Every night he cries about sleeping with me. I get him to bed and sometime during the night he comes crawling into bed with me. Even he is a little sad. And he is my happy camper always. Maybe it's just the Christmas stuff, it is our first Christmas apart as a family.

Have some honorable man questions for everyone. I paid for all the kids to buy presents for mom and dad like we always did. It's something they like to do and it's pretty cheap. But doesn't this go against buying the wife presents or gifts. Second question is, so I think I have the health insurance all figured out for the family. But if she isn't going to be in school anymore should I just let her figure out her own insurance. That's was one of the main reasons I got her insurance, so she could stay in school. And the third question is this if and when she moves out of the old house and into an apartment. Do I help move her? She is basically living with OM as it is right now. He comes home 11 days out of the month and spends probably most of the time with them at my old house. So I don't want to but unsure how to set that boundary(heck no let your boyfriend move you, when he's home, ha ha joking). She says her next place is just going to be her own and he is not helping. She wants to live on her own with out anybody. But yet he is still there when he is home. That's why she is considering quitting school. Because she can't afford a place on her own with out working full time.

So any help would be great. Thanks for reading!
