Rebuilding trust - what are reasonable requests?

[EnergyAZ]

You can consider my request to be equally childish, and I agree to an extent. I know I am in a weird place right now. Fortunately my wife understands my requests. I mean...she was doing her best cougar impression and feels like she can give me a mulligan.

"Is it ONLY to ease her feelings of guilt or do you REALLY think this?"

Knowledge is power. Once I understood how I contributed to 'WAW' and took ownership of it, it helped me see things differently.

" The slower the process, the more real the lifestyle changes & habits become to make the change 'real' and more permanent."

Agreed. She still has 6 months left on her apt lease and we plan for her to finish it. We will take this time and space to ensure the pace of things is nice and steady.

Thank you for your contributions and well wishes, its nice to get female's perspective. :-)
