Thank you reb and tullula think I understand a little more now.
Reb - during our coffee our son was present but I did ask about her parents and how work was going etc. so a bit of a baby step I suppose but I wouldn't call it reaching one of my goals...
Tullula - I have stopped all pursuit of W and never initiate contact - she does seem a lot warmer towards me - but she certainly isn't pursuing me as your husband is you... In fact I think she is warmer towards me because she feels I have moved on - not sure if this is a good thing or not... We'll see.
Sme days I feel great at detaching - this afternoon I've really been missing her. Hate the way it claws you back - but perhaps this prevents us from dropping the rope completely?
Thanks again both for your words of advice - it is greatly appreciated.
