Newbie In Need Of Guidance

[rminer]

Yesterday evening I came home and did a few chores that i needed to do and then sat down to watch the football game. Said hello to the W, she replied and that was the end of it.

During the game we both made a few comments about the game, she told me about an upcoming event for my youngest son, I asked if she got him signed up for something else we were talking about. That was about it.

Near the end of the game, she started talking a bit more about the game was more talkative. I engaged a bit, but not at great lengths.

She then asked when in would be home from work today. I said I had the day off. She responded by asking if one of our daughters could take my car to school. I said no because I have things to do. She said "in the evening?" I then told her yes, because I am taking our youngest son to his meeting.

She then told me that I didn't need to because she had to be there for something. I simply told her that I told her before that I wanted to start going, so I was going to go. She refuted that, so I simply said "then we can ride together in my car." She dropped it. A few minutes later, she started talking about another subject. We had a short, but pleasant conversation.

My job slows down tremendously in Jan., so up until then it is hard for me to be sure I will be home in time to take him. At the beginning of Jan. I told my wife that I wanted to start taking him just like I did last year. Her response was "Why? I have to be there a lot anyway, so you don't need to go."

This is one of the times she gets to see the OM, since he is the leader there. She is obviously trying to keep me away so she can see him.

When I took our son to the first meeting, the OM was there and talking to someone else. He has always come over to talk to me when we see each other and is very friendly. This time when he saw me you would have thought he saw a ghost. He didn't say a word and couldn't get out of there fast enough.

Am i playing with fire by insisting on going? I've already been emphatic that I was going to go, so I don't want to back out now, but could this backfire? I am going because I want to spend more time with my son. Being able to break up one of their chances to meet is a nice side effect though.
