Thanks for the helpful advice so far? i can already see that i have come to the right place for answers/help
i have read sandi's rules and can see that they make great sense and will be applying as much of them as i can, if not all of them.

i have been dark for 2 weeks now, to not only WW but also to her friend (see 1st post) and also to MIL.

I have had MIL ask a couple of times by text if i am OK and my reply has been sweet and to the point.

My Daughter is in constant text with her grandmother, although i have asked her not to talk about me to her!

I am currently reading the detachment thread and will be following that as well.

i will continue my quest to be a better man for mine and my daughters benefit.
