Rest of the day went pretty smoothly, Quieter than usual, less chat, focus on work and kids.
Came to the realization regarding my emotional immaturity through all of this and probably throughout MR. Time to start considering every action and thought through the lens of what would an emotionally mature and intelligent man do.
May have to fake it to start with, but feel it would help regain elements of trust and respect. Because to be honest while it's been a healthier situation for the kids I've been guilty of maybe a little too much kindness and emotional reactivity to her , whenever I'm around her. Classic NGS.
Family therapy tomorrow, not sure what it will bring up. Pretty sure my role should be to just validate.
If she goes off about me not moving on or how I seem to not respect her wishes and just want her back Not really sure how to respond.
One of those situations when the counsellor may push for how I feel rather than just validating.
