I am confused as usual. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> My FWW (I think) has been in NC to my knowledge for a little over three weeks.

To those who don’t know she is about a three hour drive from me, so I only see her on the weekends.

Last weekend was my oldest daughter’s b-day party, which she came back for. The weekend overall was ok. She seemed distant and we talked about nothing serious.

Friday night she let the kids stay up until 9:30. They were up at 6:30. No time for us.

We had sex while the kids were eating breakfast, door locked of course. The sex was good and I actually felt connected to her for once. This has been lacking in our marriage pretty much from the beginning (I want she doesn’t), but she has really stepped up and tried to meet my needs in this area.

We had fun at the party but it was mostly apart, focusing on the kids.

Her parents took the kids all night, we had a good dinner but went to bed early and slept late.

Sunday night we took a bath together and I put lotion her legs, which is pretty much standard for us.

The problem is and has been that the TV was on through the entire thing. Until I could no longer keep my eyes open, and I did LB on this.

She is a big sports fan, and any sport that is on she will watch at the cost of sleep, us of course, and just about anything else.

Since she went back the calls have been less and she is short with me. She says she is just sick of talking on the phone.

So I am wondering where do I stand?

1) Withdraw
2) Back to the same old crappy marriage…
3) Setbacks due to continued contact (false recovery)

Stay in Plan A. The SF is a very good sign.
