tgf, thank you for clarifying the secority blanket for me. Yes, it makes sense now. I agree with you. I will not be controlloing of the situation and let her lead. I will just listen and validate her feelings. It's difficult as we are separated and not in the same house but I'm sure I will have opportunities. She definitely needs someone in the audience right now to support her.

I'm not going to claim I have moved on. I agree that is not a wise move as I DO want to save my M. I don't drink at all so no alcohol for me.

Hopefully my W notices all of the changes I have made so far. After seeing this consistently over time, hopefully she will coem around. Until then I will focus on me.

I really need to decide whether or not to bring her to counseling now or wait a bit longer.

Sandi, do you still I should wait for the counseling or go now with this new counselor?

Thanks again for your help.
