I do wonder too if she has mixed emotions since she is wondering when to tell the kids and when to tell her parents.
Let's just say she does. What does that change?
Remember, focus off of her and onto yourself. Josh, you are actually in pretty good shape here. Just a few adjustments and you are on the right track!
Yeah, changes nothing. You are right. Focus on me, not her. She's just a roommate now.
Should I push the issue of staying in the marital bed? It would be interesting because the kids will see what is going on.
I would. When she protests just tell her that you're not the one that wants the divorce, you shouldn't be the one to sleep elsewhere.
Then move your office into the MBR if that makes things easier. At this point it is about commanding respect and that is more important than keeping the peace.
