Has enough time (and giddiness) passed that maybe she would be jealous?
Who says time even had to pass to begin with? You're only GUESSING that your wife wouldn't have been jealous.
The things she said to you -- about finding out about past GFs -- is standard infidelity "script," and yes, it's to assuage her guilt and make herself feel better about what she was doing.
I'm not advocating that you do that -- you should continue to pray about it and listen for where God leads you, and when it's time, you'll know it -- but I think your premise is incorrect here. It's basic human nature to value what we can't have.
