Does me saying “I’m taking S” make it seem like I’m trying to spit us apart? Would it have been better to say “I want to take S”

"I'm taking S" makes it sounds like you're both adults capable of making decisions. "I want to take S" makes it sound like she's the adult and you need her to decide for you.

That sure doesn't sound like an attempt to "split us apart". Especially given the context that she's going to a wedding solo, and possibly "solo" with an easy-talking coworker.

I applaud you taking GAL action today!

Someone doesn’t overnight decide to leave a marriage . And they aren’t going to decide to come back to it 1.5 months later.

Have you taken time to read other sitches? See what they are going through and see that this is a marathon, not a sprint, and if there is piecing, it takes a long time to get there.

I’m afraid you are going to go back to the same marriage if she were to say tomorrow “I’ll stay” and then you’ll go through the same cycle again.

I know she’s not ready to come back.

I just hope she doesn’t cheat. That’s why I feel so down.

I have read other sitches. It’s heartbreaking.

I know I’m in for a long haul. I just hope I don’t have to deal with a PA

Ozman, at least her last time seeing you before the wedding won't be you pleading or sobbing.. but rather strong and planning a fun evening with your son in common. Good luck tonight!

OMG! Are you ok? That is really a testament to how crazy we can get. Something similar happened tk me the other day. I backed into someone just a tap though, because I my monkey mind was going nuts again and I wasn't paying attention.

Uuhhmm.

So W decided not to go to wedding I guess. She hasn’t said anything but it started hour and a half ago

I cancelled Jurassic park plans because we are going to movies together to see Lion King as a family

Mind = blown

Don’t know what to think

IHCLACS, thanks! That was 3 days after BD. I'm 2 months in now. I walked away from a 65mph crash with only a tiny scar, so I consider myself lucky.

You were really excited to take son to Jurassic thing. Why did you cancel?
