Yes, you are expecting too much still. She is not only withdrawing from you and your R, but if she's anything like my W, the kids, no matter how much she loves them, are a reminder of all the R stuff. I don't think she intentionally (damn, now I'M trying to read her mind) didn't call, more like she is focusing on her night of celebration and that's it. It seems worse to you because as usual, you're waiting for her to do something that of course, you would never forget to do or blow off...sound familiar? It's really hard to put aside those personal expectations and just roll with people but I think in this time, it's what we HAVE to do if we are to prove something to ourselves about positive change, and to them if we want to demonstrate our ability to live and let live for once. Control of ourselves is paramount. Control of them is impossible and should not be attempted. Period. Hope your night gets better and you wake up with a clear mind.
