Then I just tried to go into her office and say nice things and give her kisses, and I get screamed at for five minutes for interrupting her work.

Well my sugar addicted daughter who doesn't exercise (even in virtual PE class) and hasn't taken a shit in four days kept repeatedly dumping syrup on whatever she was eating for breakfast (she does this with whipped cream too.) And when i (gently, not condescendingly) questioned her need for so much syrup on her meal, her mother instantly started yelling at me that "there's no place for a father to call in question what his daughter is eating, that's the mother's job." And off it went from there. She started ragging on my daughter for eating too much candy, and I said "Well you're the who buys her all the candy." And that didn't go over too well.

The rebuff of affection actually took place several hours later. The objection was that she was in the middle of work, and I didn't knock/ask if I could come in.

Anyway, I've moved in. Had a great Bissell Brothers DIPA with Mexican takeout from dinner. Time to watch the Queen's Gambit finale.

She scoffs at "losers" who waste their time on internet forums.

I’ve said this before but as someone relatively recently married compared to the baseline of this community (3 years this week) the tales from Space about his relationship keep me up at night.

yeah, kids can put down crap, as long as they are active and hydrated, shouldn't be a problem into their 20's
it's the habits and relationship with food/cooking that can impact a child later in life
