CLV, I don't want to speculate either but I think she may be moving to stage 4 but they tend to "cycle" meaning go back and forth between stages. I do not know for sure b/c I do not know her dating status nor will I ask her.
I will say this when I picked up my son today at her house she lingered on the front porch, and watched us navigate the ice covered driveway down to the car. It was freezing outside, then as we were driving away she stayed in the doorway to wave goodbye. I was somewhat "cool" I did not look that way nor did I wave but I could see her out of the corner of my eye.
She has also put some weight back on I noticed maybe 5 to 7 pounds, this could also lead to a firm step into the depression stage. I think she might be in a R with the guy from the Facebook pic on January 3 but I have no way of knowing and do not care, my behavior stays the same no matter what. I am doing things for me and further detatch from her.
The other thing I noticed is that I have not seen her straighten her hair in a while, granted I don't see her as much so could have missed it. You see my W has naturally curly hair and when she straightens it she looks dramatically different, almost like an alter ego. I think she feels younger when she straightens her hair and she usually does this when she goes out.
These are all small things and I just write them down and watch and carry on with my life and focus on me and my kids.

Expose yourself to your deepest fear; after that, fear has no power, and the fear of freedom shrinks and vanishes. You are free.
