Don't be too hard on yourself. You are not even 5 months in yet.
Thanks.....inching closer!

I haven't shed any tears in awhile. I am sure I will we she moves out but it will be about the kids.
I have no feelings for my wife right now. I miss the family unit and the things we all use to do together but that's it.
Most of my emotions now are about the kids. I know I have feelings for my W still, they are buried deep in there though. I think I miss the family unit the most as well. I just keep telling myself that it's not the same and it doesn't do any good to live in the past. I try to stay in the moment the best I can.

I talked to my wife's cousin at my daughter's football and she commented how happy I look and that my wife doesn't seem happy at all. I think the stress is starting to get to her regarding the reality of everything
Your D plays football????? WOW! You being happy will eat at her more than anything. That is AWESOME!!
IMO the begging, pleading, controlling, etc. all feeds into their current pumped up egos. It just gives them something to talk to their GF about and I refuse to be that guy.

Last week we were discussing the D and she said to me "you will pretty much be putting the kids on the bus every day" I said "uh no I won't, only the days I have them". She honestly thought on days she had them and she worked that I would come over her house and put them on the bus. She said "your not going to do that for me" my response was "ummmmmmmm.... no that's called marriage"
LOL....that is great! It does sound like the reality of situation is setting in. They react solely on emotion, don't think things through then act like your supposed to carry on BAU. My W has done the same thing in a few situations.
When is your D final and when is she moving out? When are you telling the kids? Do they have any clue about whats going on?
