K It is a tough call to be distant this technique is to let the WAS realize and feel the loss this one was hard for me too for the first 2 years I was mostly there..validating H and being the wife I thought he always wanted I fwlt I had to b/c I made a lot od mistakes in the M I was not there for H a alot so I needed to do this as a amends for my shortcomings in the M I said thank you I was appreciative and our R went well during the seperation..but I dont think H felt any loss b/c I was there now I dont really know what the odds are that even if they feel the loss they will return vs if we are there for them they will return I think we have to try different things and decide which tecnique will be best Im still trying to figure this one out peace
