Bel123, thanks for this. Just woke up to read it, and i am going to start today as a new challenge. I like this way of validating W feelings, i may save the whole lot for when W mentions the D word again, but there is a theme i can apply to when W mentions how to split assets, etc.
it is a hard time, living with W is not helping but at same time think its easier for W to notice change if she is here. Maybe though not so easier to see grass is not always greener.

I feel like I'm in thick forest, I'm slowly drawing a map of the way out, but not sure yet which side of the forest I will emerge.
