For once I'm a little in disagreement with Puppy (sorry dude). Since your wife is largely done with OW and does seem to be coming to you more, I don't think giving her nothing is the answer. She will get lonely for OW and probably pick it back up if you are completely out of the picture. That being said, I agree with Puppy that you need to take it slow. Let her do the work of initiating. I really don't see a problem with the icecream or blizzard or whatever it was because it was a sweet gesture...but don't make a habit of being this little puppy dog that comes running when she has some itch that needs scratched. Many of these times don't take the bait. Have something else you are doing. Be in the middle of your own life and can't talk long and can't come over. Every other time turn down the invite (or make her reschedule) because you have something else going on. But really do have something else. Keep busy. Get out. Have fun. Let her have some of you in increments, if you know what I mean.
