mules.....I read your last post and it does INDEED sound like MLC as Bill posted. Let me reiterate some things he said as reinforcement: -THIS IS NOT ABOUT YOU!!!!!! -these are HER deepseated issues

W was very depressed

Said I am just a stranger to her and she doesn't know me anymore
This is projection...she seems strange to herself and does't know HERSELF anymore
Having been thru this, I can tell you that none of the following will work: -forcing her into counselling -telling her how much you love her
You must TOTALLY focus on your kids right now. Open the door if she wants out...do it with love...do it without sarcasm or anger...do it for emotional relief. As Bill said, this does not go away quickly. It takes a LONG TIME and if you stay on this rollercoaster, hanging on every little positive sign, you will become exhausted quickly.
Even tho' the hourglass is running out on my M, the most comments that I got from my W stating that 'she didn't want a D' .....came after filing and after I gave up. Again, I am NOT recommending that you file. I read that you saw the Mets, if you live in NY, like me, perhaps there is a way that you can do a sep without doing it legally. Let her know that if she does leave, she is safe and that you won't label this as abandonment.
Hang in. FIB
