My first post - please be nice.

So. Do I start the GAL and changing myself now are once she moves out? It would definitely increase the "surprise value" if she is not living in the house. Right now the situation is we are co-existing like roommates raising our 12 yo daughter. She is looking to do her move in April when our daughter is tracked out of school and she go stay with a friend for a while. I just don't know what to do in the meantime. I guess just try to make the best of it and NOT get into any disagreements that will set any hope of reconciliation back tremendously. It's just hard seeing and hanging out with my wife I love and not being able to act like her husband and then sleeping on the couch at night.

One blessing in all of this (if any) is I think for the first little while our daughter will be with me during the week and her on the weekends. I am not only going to use this to be a better me and better husband but to be a better dad. I feel like the trouble between my wife and I has kind of put a damper on our relationship too. That and you know how hormonal and moody 12 yo girls can be.
