Struggling a bit today again. I think as I look back on this, my W has been distant for over 2 years now. It's something I had felt over this time and tried to talk to her about it but was always dismissed. She has built this network of work friends who are mostly all single or have no children. Before we made this move, our friends were all in similar stages of life. Similar ages with young children.

In the last 2 and half years, I have done probably 80% of the school/daycare activities and doctors appointments for the children. She normally hasn't turned up for them and when she doesn't have the kids has not turned up to any of their meetings or sports tournaments.

I'm struggling a bit too that I have some opportunities to move, I won't move without my children but I know they would be better with me. I have been trying to decide if I talk to my W about me moving away with the children. She can then have her free spirit lifestyle with her single friends.
