QUESTION: Should I help her move? Or just make myself scarce? I was thinking about helping move OUT, asking for her key when we are done, and staying back and not helping move IN to the new condo.
DigIt,
My opinion is that helping your wife move or not helping her move doesn't really make much difference. Certainly, if you made a commitment to helping her, then you should help her.
I'm not a DB veteran, so I may have this wrong, but I think the important thing for your wife to understand is that you're not Plan B. And, I think not being Plan B is very similar to detaching; everyone says they're detaching, but it seems few actually do it.
