Positives:
Wife and I continue to be friendly. She slowly seems to be moving closer.

My wife has started to show some interest in me. She's asking me questions about work etc. First time in 8 months.

My wife has started to confide in me and asking my advice.

Negatives:
Only negative right now is her partying. It is to the point where she is trying to get her sisters to take the kids on her weekends so she can go partying.

Even though I have this listed as a negative, in some ways it is positive as it shows she has progressed. She is trying to capture a period of time that she feels she missed out on. She sounds like a 21 year old when she brags about her bar and party exploits.

In fact she made the comment to SIL last weekend that she was never allowed to go to the bar or parties for the past 13 years. Yeah that's the way it was. whistle

All in all things are going well. I just have to make sure I keep my patience and don't push. Someone who's opinion on MLC I really respect (RCR), feels that my wife wants to come home but isn't ready to face that reality yet. Neither am I.
