Well its been a while since I posted. Things are still moving along towards divorce. All very amicable so far. I've gone ahead and put everything into motion. Found a place about 15 mins away that I really like. Great pool, great workout facility, walking distance to great food and drink.
As of now we are using the same attorney for the process. We will be sitting down in the next couple weeks to go over everything. Custody, child support, assets and debt, etc
We are getting along well and hopefully this goes smoothly. I know there will be some bumps.
Ever since the talk we had in the beginning of February things have been pretty smooth. No arguments or blow ups. Couple disagreements. Which were both about laundry of all things.
A couple days ago she asked me to wash the whites and guest towels. So I did. Threw them in dryer when done. She got mad later in the night when I didn't fold them. At that point it was 10pm and I was going to bed. I told her she had the day off tomorrow and she could finish them.
One of the things I have put in place is some boundaries and that was one of them. Me "feeling" like I'm doing everything around the house all the time. Since we are no longer working on marriage I don't feel like I need to do everything.
She can pitch in and do her share of the house she lives in as well.
Overall I am just tired. I have gotten to a point where all my anxiety is about finances and son. Not the loss of my W. Yes I have anxiety about not having the "family unit" like it was, but not about her individually.
The only way that I would work on this any longer is if she recognized some of her own faults and said the she planned to work on those.
I'm wondering if this is something I should even say to her.
I just don't know. Even if she did, I still don't think it would work. I just dont think she can give me what I want anymore. I think she has grown into a different person.
So as of now I just continue to do me. I am working out all the time, still eat better, I've grown a beard and I really work on actively listening to people.
The beard has got the attention of a lot ladies. So that's why I kept the facial hair after returning from skiing.
It's nice to get the attention. That's for sure.
