Hi GW..
Have been off the boards with a busy few days and wow, lots of catching up to do on your sitch!

I'm glad you got thru it, and Lotus is right... you were able to have a calm, honest discussion and that is important. So, now she knows where you stand. You get back to DBing and working on YOU and being the better option.

You are down because you are grieving your old M. No matter what happens, your M will not be the same. It might be better than ever! But, what was will be gone. And, that is a loss. Let yourself feel that. But, then make a choice to move forward for yourself and your girls. What your wife is describing... feeling nothing... is very common for WAS. It does not mean it will stay that way forever.

Get back on the horse... you can do this!
