have done the 180's and turned things around in my life. I have been happy again for teh first time in many years. I am finally comming to terms with what has caused all of the pain in my life. My WAW is in the house but away emotionally. She is in a seperate room, no wedding ring and no relations. I have done what I can do to improve myself, and I know better than to try to force her to fix things, but I am very frustrated. Do I really just stand around and wait for her to come back or not???? This cannot be right. We get along with talking and parenting very well and act as if nothnig ever happened. In fact in some ways it is better than it ever was. I know that she resents me for some of the things that have happened in the past. How do we deal with these problems? How does she need to deal with it. I just cannot believe that I need to sit and wait for the day that a light bulb goes on and she is ready to do these things, especially since she NEVER talks about her feelings. She has repressed so much and until that goes away we cannot fix things. So there it is...but what now? The whole thing is really weighing heavily on me and I really need some sort of affection from her. Please help me understand what is going on right now, maybe some encouragement. I love her so much, always have, I just do not know how much more I can take.
