I think your right. As much as I'm a fix it today kind of guy, I'll just back off and try to enjoy what is there. Like yourself I am also finding it hard to handle some of the natural anger involved. There are times I find myself just staring at her trying to figure things out as you would an opponent in a sports game. The fact that the person you are suppose to look to for love and support is now the "opponent", just amazes me.
On the more positive side of things I can say that I feel comfortable around her most of the time. I definately am not excited about a non-trusting relationship. When you trust other friends more than your W that's sad. In any other type of R I would have cut them out immediately, maybe not entirely, but significantly. That's not so easy in a M with kids.
Anyhow I guess I better just try what you have suggested and see where it goes. Thanks for the input. Good luck with your sitch. Hope you enjoy your classes, I loved college.
