True, how do you feel after the correspondence with your wife?

Let that be your guide for any future interaction. If you feel like you got that out, and she heard you, then it's all good.

But if you feel that you were saying things you've said before, maybe in a different way, and she wasnt listening or taking it in, then, maybe not so much, ya know?

Listen, I know that often times we think in our heart that we are ready to really and truly move forward, but, we just try one more thing, one more time.

I kinda agree with MHL.

I think you had a little expectation.

So, take a little time. Look at it all with a fresh eye.

I think she is letting you know by not really responding that she isnt ready yet.

It's really in your hands.
