FOBD I am separated after a 33 year marriage and my DW wants nothing to do with me and refuses to even talk to me - so this proves that I do NOT have a clue about marriages or winning your wife back. That said, here is my two cents worth.
1. I want my W back as the love of my life more than life itself. 2. I am treating her with honor, respect and doing only those things relative to her that I would do for my best friend in my life - which she is. If I would not do something or say something to my very best friend - I am not doing it or saying it to my W - no matter what she or anyone else says - she is my best friend, I love her, and I am treating her accordingly.
Just my input after 33 years
