Quote: As a little more background, leading up to Christmas, things were going very well too. After Christmas, I took the kids to see my family for an overnight trip. It was after we got back that she seemed a little distant. That distance continued until a few weeks ago when we had the latest argument. I think she was feeling left out, just as she did after we went to Hawaii. But that also had a lot to do with her issues. I will continue to take trips with the kids. I see no reason to make them miss out because W wants to be standoffish. So if she feels left out, and then becomes distant with me, I will confront her on it.
Did you even ask her and say something like, " hey honey I would like for you, the kid's and I to go to Hawaii? Because I am thinking you should be called out for that to. If you are leaving her out and operating as an independent rather then a team. Then she also has every right to feel hurt and left out. She again is human and has emotions. I don't know in our household we always operate as a family unit. Maybe that's why you haven't had much progress.
