Since our situations are so similar, I just thought I'd stop by and mention that I've seen substantial movement from my W in the last few days.
I've become pro-active in pushing for our legal separation, I've pulled back from doing things with her and the kids, and I've pulled back on communication with her. She has started to act very emotional around me now, has told me what I'm doing hurts, and she asked if I'd be willing to get together to talk about "us".
The true reality of divorce is hitting her in the face. The thought of having no relationship with me other than transitioning the kids back and forth. Not doing anything as a family any more. The thought of me building a new family with another woman. She is now seeing that BRUTAL reality, and the little fantasy she'd been envisioning is crumbling.
I'm starting to tentatively think we've started down the path to reconciliation. As Gucci said, crisis and fear of loss cause movement, and I'm seeing that very clearly.
