My WW and the Great Sandi2 Experiment

[mvgfwd2]

Don't sweat it. Mistakes happen. You are thinking from a rational, loving perspective while she is coming from a crazy, selfish perspective. Keep in mind all the anger, guilt tripping, etc. is classic manipulation. She doesn't give 2 cr@ps about the consequences of her actions, only that she gets what she wants at all costs and will use every method of manipulation to get it. Please don't forget that.

Now what to do. Well, I don't think there is anything wrong with after a day to think about the situation to tell her that what you agreed to was a mistake and you are moving back to the MBR. Just do it. You don't need her approval to sleep in your own bed.

The best way to end the manipulation is to not react to it. Tears, anger, being nice, using sex, etc. You will get all of them. Just don't react, act as if, and keep to what is best for you and your kids. She was only nice today because she got what she wanted, didn't care about you really, just keeping you under her thumb where you belong.

You can do it, stand up for yourself. Find that pair you know you used to have. Conflict avoidance will not solve anything and will increase the lack of respect.
