I made it clear to her a few days ago that I could accept not talking about any R stuff , if she was willing to be around more
So you put a condition on not talking about the R? IMO that is not the way to go.
What is it that you need to discuss with your W right now.. finances, the children?
In the beginning of your post you said your W needs space to deal with her emotions. At the end of your post you said you would give her the space by way of no R talk BUT she had to be around more. Where is the space in that?
If she wants space then give her space without conditions.
