AF: I think you've received some outstanding advice from Puppy, Mel, Portland, et al. One of the things I've (finally) learned is that compartmentalization is key -- no different from handling classified, btw. With D13 it's a question of "need-to-know." She doesn't need to know everything. That's not being deceptive, that's recognizing that you can't pour a gallon of milk into a pint container. With respect to W, it's compartmentalization for you -- what bits do you choose to let in, what bits do you not "need-to-know?" Why doesn't she forgive you? Who knows? You can't look inside her head. So in a sense you don't have a "need-to-know." You need to work with the information you have. Your earlier posts are incredibly positive sounding, but these later ones sound like you're letting W chip away at the foundation you're building.
