Hamburg

Here is what I did while living in the same house while w was doing terrible things

As Gerda said do your best to be kind and patient

But know that it is not always possible

At those times I just minimized interaction

She would come and I would go out

My interest was the same as a shop clerk

No more no less

I took care of the kids completely

I did all the housework

Some called this cake feeding

I called it survival

I had to drop my expectations to zero

I come home at 9pm and kids have not eaten dinner

Instead of getting angry I just make dinner

Getting angry will not put food on the table

Or get homework done or kids out to bed

No expectations w acts like a w or mother

Show her you are a kick butt single dad

Being angry and depressed does not make a good dad

She stays out until 3am

Let it go and stop caring

Coordinate the evenings where you go out and she stays home

That is good for you too even if she does not like it

Fake happy until you find your happy again

And you will with or without w
