Let me ask for some further advice. It feels like the pattern goes like this, I go black, get some decent detachment going, then she uses the kids to initiate conversation again, and in a couple days she hits me with a 2x4 of her own. I knew this one was coming, but it still happened.
How do I break out of this pattern?
