I did apologize for my behavior the other night, and also threw out a blanket apology for the beginning of our marriage. I know this has been a big issue for her, and I truly am sorry about it, so why not. I don't plan on apologizing for the rest of my life, but I do think I can give a little here. I had decided not to continue apologizing because of other things I've read so when something's not working, why not try something else.
What I've decided to do (and we'll see how W responds) is to think of what I am really sorry for, specifically, and tell her one of those things each day for a while. I am not interested in taking the blame for all of our problems, and I would like her to own up to her mistakes as well, but I have no problem owning my part of it. I figure this might go on 10 days or so. After that, I think I'll try to have a sit down and not just apologize, but ask for her forgiveness, and see if that may help put this behind us.
I went and played some golf yesterday and W was watching a movie with the kids when I got home. I was really happy she chose to spend some time with them. She seems to be around a lot more. She also slept in the same bed with me, and moved up against me multiple times, so that's a positive too.
