That's what happened to me 1st unplanned night I went out dressed up, and to tell you the truth is has been progressing over the last 3 months on both sides. It's a selfish desire to have freedom and not be tied down with the kids. when they see you do it they get jealous and they want to do it too, so expect them to ramp it up. Mine started dressing nicer and wearing lipstick and perfume all the time after that. Started going out more, looking nicer, rings off. Don't ask don't tell policies on where we were going. Its years of jealousy and resentment coming out, so don't react to it. You did poke the sleeping bear, its only the beginning. This is a game of wills. Make sure you respond neutrally to any temp checks. Make a note of them, after a while you'll start seeing patterns in what they say and do. Don't sweat it, stay emotionally parked in neutral and get your long game ready, its only just begun.
