Yeah, I think that's the next step. I've been hesitant to do it because maybe it feels too much like divorce.

A few years ago W and I were both active in the community, then she dropped out of a lot of that stuff. I would have 1 or 2 meetings a week in the evenings. She never wanted to go out anywhere. Just drained from her former job and would watch TV at home.

These days I'm going to fewer meetings and she's going out a lot more. I'd guess the ratio of her nights out to mine is like 4 to 1 now. I think that needs to change.
