I've been separated for six months,and MLC wife just said she wants a divorce. I will give it to her for lots of reasons I won't go into here.
I'm sorry you are here, but realize RIGHT NOW that you have to act for YOURSELF. Do not be desperate or clingy. That will make them run the other way. Do what you want to do for yourself. You cannot control her reaction to anything. Do not try to get inside her head--easier said than done. I've been down that road. You must decide what makes YOU happy and do it, wife be damned. You must live for yourself, not for her. Stop thinking about her! I know, easier said than done! Been down that road too.
Bottom line about GAL is exactly right. The day you start to live only for yourself and not care what your MLC wife thinks will be the day you feel liberated. She is not available to you now, and will likely try to guilt you into feeling like you are evil. My MLC W has done that many times, most recently two days ago. Just let it go! Go have fun for YOU!
