She told me that I needed to text her today when I knew she wasn't around OM and tell her that I miss her because she probably thinks that my heart has moved on and that women think opposite of guys and that she needs to hear that from me because I haven't said that in a while.
And why does she think W needs to hear that from you? W is the one engaged in an affair, not you. YOU need to hear that from HER, not vice versa. Sounds like cake-eating to me. W wants to know that you're still there as plan B fallback position in case things don't work out with OM. I think you're right in not doing that. And I would be VERY careful about what you say to SIL. Just keep in mind you might as well be talking to W. SIL may pretend to be neutral, but she's not. She firmly in W's camp. Don't ever think she's not. Many people have been burned in their reconcilation attempts by trusting their spouse's family with the wrong info.

Last night I got a cold text from her saying that "The storage unit is empty, thanks again."
That doesn't sound cold, it sounds fine. She was letting you know she got her stuff out and she thanked you. Polite and friendly.
