What Sgfan has said is very apt.

My stbx W has no respect for me whatsoever. She left me after 15 years and has treated me like dirt ever since, the only good thing I suppose is that I still live in the marital home on my own, while she lives with her parents with the children.

I think it was Puppy Dog Tails who has said that love is very closely linked to respect, but I have not seen any sign of this as she does not talk to me at all, not even via text.

The mornings and evenings are the toughest, especially Monday mornings, and especially after I have had the children.

As you do not have children it is much easier to drop the rope. Do not try to contact her in any way, let her contact you if and when she does, be cool and undemanding.

It is tough and I am still in a living hell even after 14 months, but we have no option but to carry on and take each day as it comes.

Try to be strong.
