I always try to treat my girls the way I want them to expect how to be treated by a man. The same thing with their mother, I think that is even more important. I have always thought in the back of my mind to treat my wife the way I would want a man to treat my daughters. I hope that makes sense.
As for W she is still absolutely irate and still treats me with such hate in her voice. I felt bad that I didn't say anything to her at the airport yesterday but at the same time she didn't say anything to me. I should have at least say hi, how was your flight.
Today I called her to arrange taking my D's on a trip. I asked how she was, she just said fine and did not ask how I was. I have not spoken with her in a month. She called me back later and I couldn't help myself, I had to ask her that in the future she just be a little more respectful and when I ask her how she is doing to please show me the courtesy and respect to ask me how I was doing in return. She actually had to think about it for a while and finally said she supposed she could. Unbelievable. She treats me like I'm the anti-Christ or something. Is it too much to ask to be treated with a little respect? I am still the father of our three children. This would be so much easier if A) she would just be not so hateful and mean B) she wasn't out for blood with her L
