I am in the same boat as you. If I am home, then she stays away. The hard part is, I don't want to leave because she brings her "friend" over and I don't want him around the kids. She thinks I am pushing her away from the child but that is really her choice. I am fine when she is here and I wish she would play with us or at least sit while we played. It was nice to be a family and that is what I miss. Mine thinks I am telling the kids stuff about her, the kids just know. They still love their mother very much and I am sorry she feels she needs be stay away because of me. They get up in the night looking for her and she is not home. I just tell them that she needs mommy time. I also know that she loves those boys very much. I also feel that I am in a position where the children need to be protected and she doesn't see it. She has always been a smart, and practical women, but I am wondering if they did not use silicone for her breasts, but rather brain matter. Heck, I married her because she was smart and had it together. What happened?
I think you recovered great by thanking her for being so cooprative. You teach us all a good lesson around here.
