After the initial call, text, talk from the WAS stating they wanted to work on M, How long did it take them to want to talk about R?
I know there's no "time" constraits or such on anything.
I thought W would have reached out to me by now especially after she said we should talk after she reads the SSM.
It's been 3 weeks. IDK, just thinking.
Any thoughts?

Don't chase a cat. The cat can sense if you are pursuing, then they go hide.

Thanks Coach, I will not bring R talk up. I will just wait for her to come get me.

Tell me if I'm wrong here, but I think I sense some anxiousness from you. Understandably so. She finally shows some sign of wanting to work on things and it feels as if you have finally made a small breakthrough.
I am nowhere near this point in my sitch, but can feel myself thinking the same thing. Patience is your friend at this point, I think. I know you want her to call like yesterday. I would, too.
IDU, You would be correct. I am a little anxious. I want to move forward and put this past year behind me. I do envision a better life(M) in my future.
Another possible baby step from her was asking me if I was going to family night at D5 school this Friday. If there is any fuction that deals with my kids, I will be there. So I reply: Yes I will be there.
Slow and steady with no expectatons

To answer your question. First time W said she wanted to "try" working on M...never did talk R, it lasted a week and then she stopped wanting to work on it. Second time she wanted to "try"...same as first. Third time (after I let go), it was almost immediately and it wasn't trying it was using words like saving/rebuilding/fixing. She truly had made up her mind and had let go of OM and wanted the M/R back. And we continue to talk about it every week. I won't say every day, but multiple times a week...
How does that apply to you...listen to Coach. She has to really want this, and as MWD would say, you need to be the best option.
