Denver, you forgot about option 3, give your W space and LIVE.

Look, I know that you have had hesitations about backing off, because it would feel like the 'same old Denver.'. The one that didn't give your W enough attention to begin with.

BUT, now she is asking for it. Giving her space now isn't same old same old. It's the new Denver. The one who listens and respects what his W says and wants.

This doesn't mean 'wait.'. It means giving her the time she needs, and frankly, given your recent state of mind, the time you desperately need as well.

USE the time.

Work on you. Get yourself happy. Find yourself again. The confident, smart and caring guy we all know you are.

At the same time, your W gets to work on herself.

I told you before, you're lucky, your W TELLS you what she wants. Most of us our out here guessing.

Really man, go back and read your posts from when your W first started to come around. Remember that guy? Find him. He's waiting to be unleashed.

Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions.
