I know it's hard UF... but you've only been at this for a few months...
They say 1 month of consistent changes per year together in order for the WAS to start believing the changes.. so by that timeline - you still have time.
You are really doing the work on yourself that is needed to become a man only a fool would leave - becareful about giving up so early because YOU feel you deserve something...
You got a gift/and a thank you from her - be grateful for that. There are some here - who didn't.
You have NO idea why she says one thing and does another - that's why we say believe none of what they say, half of what they do. If we did - the fight would be over in a couple of months.
If you are truly done and want to move on... then by all means do it.
But it sounds like you are more frustrated than anything.. which is coming out in the form of sounding a little self-righteous. (ie: I deserve better because I AM BETTER)
Tread cautiously with this mindset...
You're journey has nothing to do with hers. Your actions toward her are not dictated by her actions. You don't love her expecting her to reciprocate... or even appreciate it.
Drop the expectations... they only hurt you at this stage of the game.

Show empathy when there's pain. Show grace when warranted. Kindness in the midst of anger. Faith in the face of fear.
