I think you handled it perfectly. Even if it is his night watching the baby there is nothing wrong with helping out a little. He is just easing into this.

Of course you feel like saying something to WAH about the messaging and everything else. It is a natural reaction to the hurtful things he is doing. You want him to know how you are hurting so he stops hurting you at best or feels guilty and suffers for the pain he's causing at worst.

So- why don't you think it's a good idea to lay into your WAH? What are all of the reasons you aren't going to do that?

I could tell you mine, but I think it would be a golden idea to write in a post your reasons. When you prepare for a job interview you think of questions you'll be asked and be prepared with good answers. Well, you know you're going to feel this way again and again in the future. It might behoove you to rehearse your reasons why you're not going to act on these feelings so you don't have a moment of weakness and interfere with the dust settling.

Thoughts?
