jmw128, I think option 2 is going to push her further away since it comes across at guilt tripping and pursuing. Option 1 comes across as "game playing"; it would be "acting as-if" only if you were honestly ready to accept D. Option 3 is "passive" if you do not make the best use of your separation - detach lovingly, GAL, self-improvement, 180's, prepare or the legal and financial side of D, go to C for yourself, etc. - let W act on the D if she's so inclined you can say you are thinking it over or something non-commital since that's actually the case. I understand its frustrating and open-ended but the pluses so far for you is the "not no-fault state", D is not filed yet, your separation gives you both space and time to work/heal.
