I haven't found a job yet but I have had two interviews in the past few weeks and the market here seems to be opening up. I have decided for sure not to move out of town.

Yeah, I've made a real effort to open up a dialog with her. I started trying to ask questions at the end of emails to keep the conversation light and off the topic of D related matters. I asked how she was doing and she replied "Good!" lol so I knew that I had to change that up...

next I asked her if they had hired someone at work to help her out because she was working ridiculous hours over about the last 18 months of our marriage... she said that it had and that the extra time was really helping her. I told her that that was great and that she deserved some time off for working so hard and that I was glad to hear that she had it.

Last week I started talking to her about wine which she always enjoyed but I never did. When we were still living together (but after the bomb) she had made a comment one night when we were talking about wine that "if we don't get divorced we could take a wine tasting class together" it was obvious that she didn't mean to say it like that and it was a pretty awkward moment lol. But talking about wine has actually been pretty productive over the past week or so and she has opened up quite a bit (in terms of lengths of emails)

she is contacting me almost every day pretty much. I have been putting off replying when i can (which is most of the time) and am even considering going dark for a few days just to be less available to her. over all i think that it is going well.
