rough: I've read the same thing over and over and think that im slowly becoming more ready to accept that its over. I think its incredibly hard to learn to accept it while at the same time not wanting your marriage to end.
With that being said....I have also worried about people saying the piecing is the hardest part. I really still believe that my WAW is willing to try to work this out, thats what she told me, and she's mentioned it to her family as well, but im not sure she's going to be willing to do much work to work it out. If that makes sense, I think if its easy and comfortable she'll go with it, but if it becomes even a little bit of a struggle I think she'll bail. But thats putting the cart before the horse so to speak.
As of now we're not really even speaking...the occasional text about S11, or a hi how are you when i go pick him up, but in almost 6 weeks nothing that even resembles a conversation.
Guess I have no advice for you other than to say the DB mantra, keep working on you, GAL, have some goals and I know you've done a good job trying to get your financial situation worked out, take pride it that and keep working. I've read enough of these stories to know that it can happen, and when it does it often seems like it comes out of the blue that they are interested all at once in talking about/working toward R.
It may never happen for some, but you have to keep moving forward and be ready if and when it does to show them the "new" you.
