Last night after my sons and I got home from their floor hockey game that I coach and my wife got home from an activity that she had went to, she asks the kids how hockey went. So we all had a conversation for around 15 minutes about that. It was an interesting game and issues with parents so there was a bit to talk about.
Later as we were all setting in the living room watching tv or on various electronic devices my wife strikes up a conversation with me about what is going on with the North Dakota Pipeline protest asking if I had read much about it which I hadn't. She spends the next 30 minutes talking with me about it and showing me videos online.
So this is something that does not happen anymore, hasn't for a long time, we discuss nothing unless it has to do with kids or she brings up something about the divorce.
I'm not reading anything into it at all, other than she sometimes gets tired of not having an actual conversation in the house with someone else besides the kids, once in a great while she will talk to me about something unrelated to our relationship or the kids but it is very rare.
Anyone else have any thoughts?
It is nice when the tension is relieved some what and we can talk about something in general for a while, I don't bring anything up anymore but if she does I will engage in a conversation with her.
This will be our first holiday dinners apart, I was told I can take my sons to my parents Thanksgiving on Thursday and she will take them to her parents on Friday and I am not invited.
