W still wants separation, need to DB more

[MrBond]

Oh you don't have to make a big deal about it. Just ask "is something wrong?" and not "what's your problem?"

Right now you're at the point where I was at whereby I was analyzing EVERYTHING I was talking to her about. I chose my words so much that I actually stopped talking after awhile because I was afraid of saying the "wrong" thing.

The way to do it is to start seeing your W as a friend rather than your W. How would you ask your friend if she was in the same mood? If a friend snaps at you and says "nothing!" you would just shrug it off because she's being rude. Same here.

Just stop walking on eggshells around your W. Not saying you need to be an @$$, but just BE the better person you've changed into.
