I am so glad you posted this. I really think that is what she is doing. So I go to pick her up from the Airport last night. I purposely try to keep my distance and not go in for a hug or kiss. She actually came to me to give me a hug and kiss. So we get home and I tell her I am going to gym so she can spend time with the kids. She calls me on the way to the gym asking what we want to do for dinner and what not. Anyways she has been texting/calling a lot more last night and this morning. I don't want to mind read and will just go with the flow. It makes sense that she is trying to manipulate me because this behavior is a total 180 from what she was doing before she left and while she was gone. I am going to be strong and not give into her. I want to continue working on myself and my relationship with my kids.

I haven't yet read the link on detaching but will read it right after this post.
