Good plan. I would try to make plans for tonight and make yourself scarce this weekend.

Not a good plan.....it should be THE plan.

MJ, when you aren't with your kids.....you should be out GAL. Join a gym. Take a class. Get involved with a men's group. Volunteer at church. Volunteer for charity. The busier you are the more attractive you will be.

I am joining a gym and I’m looking for a good men’s group now. The problem is she is always finding ways to not be around for the kids. So that has been frustrating.

She just texted me a little while ago wanting to know about talking again today. I haven’t responded yet. It’s probably going to be tough to dodge this conversation this weekend.

I have plans for both Saturday and Sunday this weekend. Not much going on tonight though. She definitely wants to have this talk about counseling though.

Well, you said "Okay" both Wednesday and Thursday, and she neither made time to tell you her message nor simply texted your her message. You're not the one dodging her message.

Go ahead and let her talk. As discussed before, listen and validate. If she makes any requests or demands then tell her you need time to think about it and consider your options. DO NOT COMMIT TO ANYTHING. Even if she says "I really want to give things a chance, let's go to MC" then your response should be that you want to think about it. Then come here and let us know and we'll give you advice on the next steps.
