I get where you guys are coming from, Lance and Grit. Does there not ever come a time when the LBS is allowed to say, without guilt, I'm done!!?
We are all here to try to save our M. Some cannot be saved even if we do everything we are supposed to. It just won't matter.
From following Pin's thread, it seems to me that his W does not want any type of "real" relationship with him. Yes, she said she's willing to stay for the kids and have sex, etc. and maybe that could lead into a true change of heart for her somewhere down the line. I could see him staying if she said she "just wasn't sure how I feel. I do want to feel that way for you again." She only wants the convenience of a family and not be blamed for her part in tearing it apart. She is offering this olive branch to alleviate her own guilt.
If Pin has reached his breaking point after not getting any sign from his W that she wants to try, I say he can walk away from her poison and not feel bad about himself for doing the best he could. She had told him what she wants and he is simply giving it to her. What is the harm in that? When is enough enough?
