So just step back, shut my mouth, move on with my life and see if she ever comes back? I guess that seems like the approach I should have been taking all along.

I just read through DR again. I had to stop and focus on the part where there was mention that some spouses simply never look back. once they decide to leave, they are gone. My W hasn't waivered a bit in her conviction to leave. She has said numerous times that shes done and she doesn't want to be married to me anymore. She doesn't want to work on the marriage. She is in a calmer happier place without me, and we're not going to get back together. I guess it is time to really listen to what she has been saying. It's just a tough pill to swallow
