Hey IHC, sorry if I was short with you but no man your advice has been great so far and I appreciate it. Yeah I was pretty responsive to texts from W but am finding I am getting better at replying in a stoic manner, short and to the point. Yeah agreed about emotions, I think it is normal to feel them but we shouldn’t be acting on them at this point.
I’m not quite sure why but after my last few posts, a few of you seem to think I am out drinking every night until I’m drunk in the gutter. I know I mention being out drinking often in my posts but this is because oddly enough whenever my W starts an R talk it happens to be when I’m out drinking. I am very physically active and am not out drinking everyday. There are far more nights that I am not drinking, but as nothing happens regarding my W these nights I don’t post about them.
So anyway just updating. After the rude R talk my W initiated the other night she texted me apologizing in the morning. “Sorry For being rude last night”. “Do you accept my apology.” “Please accept my apology.” I didn’t reply.
The next day she tried face timing me. I did not answer. She then texted me a picture of our S. “It’s crazy hair day tomorrow. Son wanted to show you his hair!” I did really appreciate this picture because it’s been a almost a week since I had son. But I replied just “cute kid”. W replied something but I didn’t reply.
Today W texted me “tomorrow is sports day”. She wrote a big paragraph but briefly: she wanted to borrow the jersey I bought for son for sports day and if she could come by my house later to pick it up. I was going to be home at that time and didn’t want son to be only kid without a sports shirt so I just said “sure”.
W stopped by to pick up jersey. I said hi to son, handed jersey to wife and started walking away. I realize that here I maybe should have kept walking but didn’t when she said wait! She asked again if I would take son two weekends in a row to which I again replied no I have plans. She then started asking how last weekend was. I replied “it was fine.” She asked I bet you’re being crazy. To which I replied “no” and walked away. She seemed to show me annoyance when I once again denied taking the extra weekend. Just an observation.
