Do you know what a normal conversation is? Your wife has given you big hints.
Your wife wants to know all about you (intomesee). Work, family, hobbies, friends, goals, plans, travel, fun, kids, ideas, stories, exercise, health, spiritual, what you are learning - get it? You want affection then give her what she needs. Let her in to your life. It works.

He said that W doesn't seem to have much joy about her; I totally agreed. She's been like this for years, not much "fun" or spark in her.
Answer - Your wife can't stand herself, she can't understand why you are interested in her. When you dumped her she felt attracted to you. She doesn't view herself as valuable and can't be attracted to a man who is interested in a "joyless" woman. Once you weren't interested it made you attractive because you now became valuable.

Give her what she wants and needs.

At work she is the pursuer. Cats love to hunt. The solution is right in front of you.
