Wow, this forum is so amazing. I really appreciate the very honest and direct feedback I'm getting.
Yeah, I know she doesn't love me, and I know that she's angry/resentful ... My wife has always been the type that when she gets mad at somebody, she stays mad and can shut people off very easily.
A couple of weekends ago, we went to a gymnastics meet for one of my daughters. We went in the same car, although she started sitting passenger side she shifted to the back. We had a great time because our daughter was doing really good. We didn't talk the whole time, she spent quite of time on the phone / social media. Again, sometimes she'd be next to me but most of the time she'd move. I got that, and respected her space and would do the same.
We played a little game of guessing the score our daughter was going to get, and high fived when she did really amazing. I did make her laugh a couple of times and she touched me while laughing to tell me "you're so silly". I hate that I notice that, but her physical contact is so limited I notice everything.
I came back really happy, but the meet ran late. We got home at 11pm, then at 11:30pm she left for a birthday party of a mutual friend (more hers than mine). She came back at 2am, that hurt like hell but nothing I could do about it and I didn't think it was worth it for me to complain (this was her 'weekend w the kids').
Today our 5 year old had their halloween parade as school. She let me know, texted me when it started and I went there. We went in separate cars and I went to where she was when I saw her (mistake?). We took pictures of our daughter, nothing bad happened.
Tonight she told me she'd wait for me to come back so we can take her trick or treating together.
