Hi west. First some advice on posting here. How much you get out of the community here depends on how willing you are to be proactive about seeking advice. For the best chance of getting advice, you need to keep all your posts in one thread and keep bumping it with daily journalling.

If you can stick it out, what you are about to go through could potentially change you forever (in a good way), no matter what happens with your relationship.

It sounds like you are already starting with the basics (not pursuing, pleading, trying to convince here with words) so that is good. The next step I would advise is to make a list of all the things she has complained about, and work on setting them straight. Note that you are not doing this for her, you are doing this for you. You are taking her feedback, and using it to become a better person. ie. do not make superficial changes intended to impress her or "win her back".

Post back, let us know what you are working on changing. Remember, you can't change her, you can only change you.
