No worries...I understand the stress you are under. Just wanted to make sure I didn't offend you. That's not my purpose here.

If I may, I'll offer you up something to consider that I read in a couple of different books, and my counselor confirmed to me. In your recent post, you were thinking out loud about questions you'd like her to consider.

"Is he looking for a job?"
"Is he doing anything to bring in what he can?"
"Is he mean to you?"
"Does show you respect?"

I also wondered if my wife was giving me any credit at all for what I was doing.

The answer was simple from her perspective..."no". Typically, the walk away wife is so focused on how she feels, how she hurts, etc, that she is not concerned (at least right now) about how you feel.

As I mentioned in an earlier post, that did change, but it took time (a couple of months).
