Quick update on the picnic tonight. I feel it went great and I had a good time. There was no drama. The W and I were good parents to our kids tonight and nobody would know we are having issues. It was nice to meet the parents of the other kids in my sons class. I had a good time. I feel the changes I am making allowed me to have a better time than I would have in the past. This was the sort of thing I would often dread. I am not really the type who likes to mingle with a bunch of strangers, but one of the changes I have been working on for me is being more outgoing towards others.

When we got home the W was drinking her wine and started to ask me questions about my therapy. I politely told her it was personal and I didn't feel comfortable sharing that info with her. What she really wanted to know was what my therapist says about her. I guess she is so self conscious that she is worried what my therapist thinks about her. I told my W my therapy was private and my therapist mostly listens to me without judging others. She also asked me what would happen if we couldn't reconcile. This one caught me off guard. I just said I will deal with that should it happen. Then she asked me if my therapist asked me if I love my W. I told her I don't think that has ever come up. My W then asks how do I know I love her. I told her I really wasn't comfortable talking about this right now, but I told her I did love her. None of this talk was in anger, it was all just a conversation.
