Sorry to hear the bad news buddy. The same thing is happening in my household as well. My W said to me that Retrouvaille was all about co-parenting and that "there's too much water under the bridge." I'm now at a point where I've decided to move on with my life. You do the same. Our wives our "stuck" right now and there's nothing we can do about it. Period!
In my case, I believe that my marital breakup is more than just about me. I think my W is in some sort of MLC. She's not happy with me. She's not happy with the kids...she's simply not happy. There may be another person...I don't know. I no longer give my W any reason to leave the marriage...but it's not enough.
I'll be fine. You'll be fine. We all will be just fine. A girlfriend of mine already has two dates set up for me...all I have to do is say yes at this point. I'm not sure if I'm ready to start dating, but it is damn nice to have 2 diffent women WANTING to go out with me.
For now I'm focusing on self-care and my children. I'm nice, polite, and cordial towards my W, but I could care less about what she's doing or where she's going. I've dropped that heavy rope...you do the same buddy.
Best Regards, LFH
