"Anybody have a good quote on how "time and patience are our most valuable asset" or some such tidbit? I need to hear that right now."
Your W may not be able to look at you for a number of reasons. My W does the same thing. For me, I take it as guilt. I don't think she can totally look at me in the eye and not feel guilty about what she did to me.
Do I make her feel guilty? No. But it's how she chooses to feel. So I try to make things as comfortable as possible for her.

Emotion, yet peace. Ignorance, yet knowledge. Passion, yet serenity. Chaos, yet harmony. Death, yet a new life.
