Thanks Denver. The reality is...we are getting along fine. We aren't fighting or arguing. We are maintaining all of our "responsibilities" the same as always - in a healthy way.

Yes we've had nights of R talk after the kids goto bed, that has gone well and gone bad at times.

I also know that it's no longer about me, and that I'm not going to "change" my W's mind. I'm not even trying to do that, all I've been attempting is show her who I can be. In the end if she still doesn't want that, then so be it.

I believe, just based on what I've seen - that she will come around. It's not going to happen quickly, but if she'd even "let me in" slightly I think she'd realize that WE'LL get through this...

I'm not moving out - no chance. I could probably afford it, because I'd probably just advance my plan to move into my buddies place. I'm worried about the message that would send everyone in my life, and how it might effect any sort of custofy/financial considerations should they come up. I just don't know how I would sell "I'm moving out" as positive - other than I would be away from her.

I do agree that DB'ing would be easier, but then I be walking away from my kids, when I know I have at least another 6 months were I am going to get to see them every day.

My W is leaving in 10 days to go away for a week, and I think it will be good for both of us. Don't get me wrong, she'll be on vacation so I'm not sure how much she'll "miss me" or feel the presure of the sitch.

I appreciate your feedback Denver, but I'm certainly not "Walking Away".
