I have been reading your posts because when I first joined as a newcomer you gave me some good advice. In my sitch I was the one who initiated a separtation and filed for divorce. I have had many moments of panic where I thought I had done the wrong thing but now looking back a bit I realize all of this was meant to happen in order for my H and I to make our marriage stronger. But after I realized the key was working on me and not my husband or the M it was amazing what happened. I became a hot commodity to my husband and not somethng the cat dragged in.
I know the pain you are in right now but the problem is supply and demand - your wife doesn't think you are a hot commodity becuase you are still available to her and she knows you want her...the saddest part is that if you found yourself a lady friend and your wife found out about it she would be begging you to come back. Any prospects in sight or are you not at all ready to date?
