Sad,
I too wonder why am I doing all of this and getting nothing in return. I guess it's because I really love her and will keep doing all the work until I reach a breaking point.
The loneliness coupled with her betrayal makes living life unbearable at times, but I know this will pass.

I agree with mr bond on the expectations and seeing ow.

Don't get me wrong I've had thoughts about ow, but I just can't do it.

Hell, I'm 51 and better get in the game before all my hair and teeth fall out! (gotta keep some sense of humor)

Being apart must be especially tough, try your best to focus on other things. Worry and speculation will get you nowhere.

Belive it or not I envy where you are, my w moved out of the bedroom 3 yrs ago
only now do we hug and maybe I can kiss her cheek.

I'm sure your w is working on her issues, you are going to have to accept her timetable, keep working on yourself.

Cold
