DB'ing but it's a daily struggle - need support 2

SIC!
not to rain on the parade but the detached thing does mean to stop the touching/smacking. I know it stinks because it sounds like that's what you guys did in the past but realize, she's different now. Unfortunately, that's what it is.

BUT the good news is she may still come back. But dude, you need to truly detach. Think about this. Now she gets all po'd at you. It puts her right back in the frame of mind of "See? I was right. He will never change."

Detaching will help you show you are different - if indeed you want to.

This all [censored] I know but you have to do it if you want it to work...
