Ok, so an update from over the last 48 hours or so. So she spent the night with OM on Tuesday night.
We were cancelled at this point to go the marriage counseling course which was to take place Wednesday evening at 6:30pm.
Around 2:30 on Wednesday I got a call from her, which is odd at this point as everything has been running through texts for last 7 weeks.
She found out that I had dinner with a friend (female).
This female friend is ONLY a friend and I have known her for many years.
Wife decided to pretty much flip out on me and yell at me about this.
Keep in mind she has been dating OM for 7 weeks.
NOW she cares that I had an innocent dinner with a friend. Comments ranged from “I hope you’re happy”, “This is the woman you want to be around our son”, etc… Shortly after we got off the phone, she texted me and said “I am Breaking it off with OM”.
I asked her why and she said because she is confused, it’s not worth it, etc.
15 min later she texted again and said it was official that she broke it off with him. I let things simmer and then decided to ask her to go to the marriage counseling thing at the church that night which started in about 3 hours from this point. She said she didn’t know and for me to do what I needed to do. I finally said that’s it, Im coming to pick you up at 5:30 and we are going to this thing, which she agreed.

About 15 min before I was scheduled to pick her up, she called and asked if we could meet somewhere nearby in a parking lot and then ride from there?
I agreed but asked why. She said she was not ready to pour salt on the wounds of the OM across the street. In her mind she was concerned that he would see me picking her up.
So at this point a couple of things come to mind.
1) Did she even break it off with him,
2) If she did break it off with him, did she tell him that she was going to attempt to work things out with me? Ok, so we met in parking lot and proceeded to drive almost an hour with traffic to this counseling church event.
The entire time was awkward, contentious and uncomfortable. I was very calm the whole time but she was combative.
I kept my cool. Several times I wanted to make a U-turn and take her home!! We attend the event which was amazing btw, but she had a middle of the road at best attitude towards it the entire time.
On the way home I asked her what she thought and she said she didn’t know.
I asked her what her ultimate plan was and she said she didn’t know.
She didn’t know if she wanted to try and work it out with me or whatever.
I dropped her off at her car and she went on her way.
I went and picked up our son from the grandparents’ house and took him home.
I had to help him inside with some of his bag, etc. Ona normal night, wife is a busy body, in the kitchen, media room, just up doing something especially at this time of night.
When I walked in she was just lying on the bed staring at the ceiling. I didn’t say anything and left. That night around midnight she texted me saying that Im lying about that OW, and she knows there is more (which there isn’t). Her to text at this time of night is highly unusual. I didn’t respond.
She texted me at 7:15am the next morning, “You have nothing to say”? I told her I was not lying and was not going to continue these types of conversations with her.
She continued for the majority of yesterday morning with the same types of texts about “I can’t believe you would choose this girl” “She is trashy, ugly, can’t you do any better, etc”. I ignored them.
At this point I went on to try and create a 2 week look ahead on visitation for our son. I jotted some dates together on a calendar and sent them to her.
She said it’s too sloppy to read and that she will look into it later and let me know.
That was about 24 hours ago and neither one of us have texted or called each other since.
As you can see her behavior is a complete 180 of what she has been doing and acting in the last 7 weeks.
Has she finally realized what she is doing is wrong?
Has she broken down?
For the first time ever she said she needs counseling.
What is going on in her head?
What is my game plan at this point?
