Should I go? If I do go, should I sit near my wife?

I mean, on the one hand, I want to go to support my daughter. However, I do not want to pursue or contact my W in any form. Not sure what my boundary here should be.

I'm worried obviously about how I will act/react, and I'm honestly scared to go because its going to hurt so much to see the W.

I don't know. I'd like to hear some of your opinions. Been in no contact pretty consistent for about 3 weeks now. There is basically zero communication between me and the W, only the barest of minimum about kids routine.

If you think I should go, should I notify the W beforehand? And if I go should I sit near her? (I'm scared of being seen as the one to act first in a certain way...but that may be the wrong way of looking at it.)



Your daughter wants you there so there's your answer. Don't ever let your wife's stupidity interfere with your role as a father. All you need to know is that your daughter wants you there. Once there sit wherever the hell you want to sit regardless of what your wife thinks. You've put her opinion first for too long and she takes it for granted. Do what you want.



The future is as bright as you demand it be.
