So I suggested to her that we meet Monday at the park and to bring the dogs. I noted that it would help ease the tension between us. She was receptive to the idea and agreed.

Then I slipped up and broke the rules...I told her how I had been working out every day since she had left. I was down to a weight I had not been since 2004. I got into specifics of what work outs I had been doing. Then I added "I'm not doing this for you. I am doing this for me. I wanted to let you know because I am damn proud of myself. And the girls are too." I could've slapped myself. But it motivated me to work out more lol. Now that she is expecting results, I have to continue.

Then she threw me for a loop. She responded, "I am so proud of you! That is awesome! That is great news!" I was like, "what is this?" The wife I know is not supportive or even nice. She insults me and puts me down. We texted a couple more times and the positive stuff continued. This behavior has me worried. I'm almost afraid of what she will say on Monday. I have no expectations. It has been about four weeks now. I know that her feelings have not changed in that short time in the way she left. This is a long term project and I am in for the long haul.

She also confided in me that she snuck back in the house while I was at work 4 days after she left. She said she missed the dogs and was homesick.

I am back to detaching and GAL. Spent the 4th working on the yard all day and spending time with family. It was very enjoyable.
