Cooks meals, seeks me out to tell me about her day, laughs looks for my eye contact when watching funny tv. It really is a mind-f***. Very hard line to walk between doing 180's and detachment. Keep up that running. I have been hitting the gym pretty hard and I'm no gym rat let me tell ya.


I should take a look at yours!

She sent me a message asking what I want for dinner. She said she's not interested in food or getting off the couch but she'd make something. I'm certain this means she has something to talk about tonight, probably separation. She pulls this indirect style of communication whenever something is up.

I'll try to focus on calm and validation. I don't know how she'd see separation working, but we don't have money for a rental and I'm not leaving the house per advise from a lawyer years ago. I'm told leaving can be seen as abandonment and lead to custody issues with the kids.

Wish me luck
