W found out she needs to do a business trip in early Jan. It should be for a week, but she said it wasn't fair for her to be gone that long, esp since she had another activity the Saturday after she would get back. (Over text.) I texted back that it would be fine, we could get facetime for the kids, and that a week apart would be good for us, anyway.
I think it will be good for us. Living in the same house when she still wants the big D is rough. Not even the tiniest sign of being interested on working on the R.
It will be good for you.
I remember soon after BD1, my W was on a business trip and she would call and talk and talk. At home she filled her time with activities and go out such that she didn't have time to think. On the business trip she had no distractions from her inner turmoil.
When she's away, don't you initiate contact. And if she calls, you break off the conversation before she does.
