Well, since you ask... it's been a bit of an interesting, though uneasy, truce. I decided a couple of months back to basically pretend I'm living with my sister: Get along, have fun, do the normal things, but do not give or expect to receive anything physical. I don't mean just sex, I mean anything. I don't touch her shoulder as I walk by, or give her a hug hello, or anything. To my surprise, this seemed to confuse her a bit, and she's been more affectionate. Actually, we've been getting along great. It's no long term solution, but.... you ever see "Risky Business"? Sometimes you just gotta say, What the F*ck! Change the dynamics a bit, know what I mean? We'll see where it leads.

Yeah, that's what I figured. Seriously, go by yourself, or take your kids out to pizza or something. If your wife wants to tag along, good for her.
