Well, all the "signs" I have thought were positive apparently weren't. Thursday evening, I had a discussion with W about coming up with ideas to improve our R - little things like hand holding, occasional hug. Her response: Nothing has changed for her since she dropped the bomb in April. Nothing.
She has apparently just been nice so we could be friends to be the best "co-parents" for our children.
Back to square 1, apparently. Pretty bummed, but I am doing surprisingly (maybe not) well. All of my concern and worry right now is for our kids.
