I think (no I know because I have been there) you have put all your hope and expectation in your W coming back.

And to use Eric's fine perspective

You can't let it consume you.

And it has. Since you started this thread.

Still watching. Still projecting.

And it is tiring. It is exhausting to get your hopes dashed.

Isn't it?

Makes you want to give up.

What if she said she wanted to come back right now?

Would you just do somersalts and backflips?

What would that look like?

Is there another level of detachment?

Yes I believe so.

I'll speak for me. My W has a lot of work to do. These little signs she might be coming around or whatever...

F@ck that. This thing doesn't end until I say so and it doesn't go back to working on it until I say so.

It ain't enough that she says she misses watching a footbal game with me.

F@ck are you kidding me? This isn't anger or anything else and you know what I am talking about.

How could you want her back RIGHT NOW????

She ain't fully cooked yet. Not even sure if she is in the oven yet.

THAT is the peace I want for you. That you know what you are doing and what path you are on.

Just look at your wife as an unbaked fruitcake.

So

How to describe it????? A couple of weeks ago I was leaning towards not wanting my marriage and this week I am leaning towards wanting it.

How about peaceful? The peace that comes from knowing in your knower what you are doing and why.

Peace from within, not from without.

I know you get this man so stop f@cking around and live it.

Live it.
