This is not giving up. It is simply a new and different way for you to fight for your M. As you free up pressure for her, more pressure will added to you.......UNLESS you learn how to emotionally detach from everything she says/does. That is the first step for all newcomer LBS. You have to learn not to take her personally.
I've re-read this couple times now, and I think you're right. I am left with little choice at this point but to try this. I must act like she almost doesn't exist to me. Which was sort of how last night went. We each sat for hours, saying nothing, it was chilling and the tension was so thick. I eventually had enough of sitting there waiting for her to open her mouth that I went to bed to continue reading till I fell asleep. I figure I'll just leave her completely alone tonight and for the duration of the week and see how it goes. I can go cold/dark too.
Of course, this being the week of V-day I'm very conflicted about what to do if anything. Do I still get her something from the kids? Do I get her as I had planned a locket with a picture of me and the kids? I was planning on doing something special for her alone, a massage or spa? Part of me says F-it, she can deal with what she's created for herself.
