I need advice from the vets and the WAW's out there. I know there is a large age desparity between my wife and I me 49, W 28, but it was never a factor between the two of us. My W has not communicated with me since July 4th, except one "Thank you" email. Am I beating a dead horse or should I continue dbing. I plan to work on myself to rid the demons that jeopardized this relationship.

But what am I to think about what my wife is thinking....is keeping silent because she wants to hurt me for the affair, is she trying to forget about me, is she confused and does not want to speak with me until she knows what she wants, is she afraid of me? I know most will say all of the above. I have not filed anything and she has not indicated to me what she wants.

The days leading up to when she left we were like a newly wed couple. She was even ironing my shirts after she told me that she was leaving (guilt I guess). The silence is killing me. Am I wasting my time and should totally let go?
