26yrs is this the end

Kevc, the 6 hr time difference raised its head again. Ahh the joys of home ownership, I know them well.

It sounds like you have a few baby steps, build on what is working. Be calm, confident and in control of yourself when you interact. You want to be more attractive than the OM.

Remember this is about you becoming a better person that she may eventually see as more attractive. There are no guarantees she will, but I can guarantee if you don’t become the better person and revert to the old form she’ll be gone.
Do not point out your changes, let her discover them.

It is tough I know, but you are at least seeing small positives. Write them down in a journal; keep it for yourself to review. Patience, loads of patience.
