Hey everyone!! Not much has changed but I had an awesome weekend and lotsa good pick-me-up stuff that has motivated me even more about moving my life forward.
I have a question for anyone who might have experience with this.
W isn't interested in doing MC or even IC for herself, which is none of my concern. What I am looking at is doing a co-parenting counseling or course. Does anyone have experience doing this and how it went? Did it improve your co-parenting?
I found an online course that seems to be great, which I can also do for myself and doesn't have to be with her. The course option seems better so that we don't have to be sitting in the same room together. She's still seething with anger and I don't want to create any interactions where that might just derail some positive efforts.
So, I am thinking of doing the course and also suggesting it to her to do it. Does that classify as pursuing? I just want to do things that will improve the kids lives and also give us skills to handle things better. But, I don't know if this will flame the situation further.
She had after BD mentioned doing a communication or co-parenting counseling, but never followed up on it.
She's just been too angry to even interact with me in person without looking like she wants to beat the crap out of me. I just interact with her pleasantly and calmly - simple Hi Hello stuff. It's been a stretch for her to even manage that type of minimal conversation. The kids are seeing all of this and I feel that it is not optimal for them. So, I want to change it up. i don't care if she's angry or whatever, but I want her to handle that when we have to interact in-person. Now, I don't know how to say that without making the situation worse. Hence, the co-parenting course suggestion - but that also could make the situation worse.
Or I don't do anything about it and just handle myself. I don't know what's the best way to go about this.
