How many months do I just sit here DB’g when I know the BD is coming? Is there a point where I am disrespecting myself, watching my W slowly plan this out? Could it be better to just call her out? “hey you’re not wearing your ring what’s up?” Or “I don’t want to go back to MC if we are not trying to stay M’d” or “I see the stress we both are under is impacting our kids” or “I’m not gullible I see you plotting this all out and distancing yourself and finding more and more reasons every day to justify your anger no matter what I do”

Seriously what do you do if W stops wearing her ring? It’s possible this is a one day thing due to working on the garden but it just seems... odd.

In the meantime I feel like I need to set some boundaries. Looking for feedback here on these:
- I will walk away from angry conversations
- I will not step into help W discipline our kids if she started the discipline (timeouts etc)
- likewise If I am dealing with my child I will not have W butt in

Any good GAL ideas for someone who works FT and has 3 little kids so spends all time at work or home basically?
