Why didn't you say "can you at least give me the chance to show you that you MAY NOT be miserable and unhappily married to me...just one more chance? Aren't we worth that to each other?" It may have worked while she was vulnerable like that. But who knows...it might have turned against you.

SP - I see and sense that your wife is backing down a little bit....HOWEVER....some of the sadness you are hearing in her voice may have to do with her "other" situation, if you know what I mean. That might work to your advantage, though....
