Wow! Sounds to me like you've given her all the chances in the whole world! Are you saying now that you're done?
Advice.... don't make threats you're not willing to follow through with. If you've asked her to move out and she's agreed - make her do it!!!! She'll keep stepping on you if you don't follow through.
If she wants this independence, she'll have to take the good with the bad.
If she can't respect your boundary of NC... then she's not the one for you. It should matter to your PARTNER when something isn't okay with you, especially when that's an A.
Chin up! There is light at the end of the tunnel.
Funny couple of days - she's acting like nothing is up, saying multiple "i love yous" a day, lots of texting, "snuggling" me at night, etc...is she trying to turn this around or just in denial right now, I'm not sure.
(Tonight at dinner w/ the whole family, was talking about activities in the "future tense" - all very weird to me given just last week she was confirming "this is the right thing to do"...wonder if the reality of the situation is kicking in or something and she's getting scared/worried about really being apart - I don't know.
Tempted to jump in tonight and tell her where I'm at (needing to separate - am seeing a lawyer this week or early next week, back to seeing my IC, who, despite being very "pro-marriage", doesn't see any hope here given the multiple number of chances she's had)...at the point now I don't really know what to believe coming out of her mouth.
Any insight, anyone, who remembers the initial conversations with your spouse (or now ex-spouse) about separating (especially those with kids)? That's the part that's so hard in all of this...
Clue me in on this "light at the end of the tunnel"
