Being down is a normal part of the healing process. Hell, I've been on my man period for 2 weeks now. Accept it for what it is, don't let it control any of your actions, and continue to GAL and you'll get out of it.

Yes Nancy, that is a toolish thing to say .
Wanting and needing are very different things. You don't have to act needy to want her. I assume you want her to want to be with you as well. Guess what, being needy isn't a feature any woman wants their man to be.
Just curious, why do you feel needy towards your W? Are you that way in other parts of your life?

Would you rather have her acting like a b!tch towards you? I try not to think of it as progress as much as just being a more tolerable living arrangement. Optimist/ pessimist talk makes me think of expectations being present based on her attitude towards you. Try not to think of it in any terms and just enjoy the moments and be yourself. My guess is she doesn't even understand why she's doing it. Don't overanalyze it, just enjoy it and remember these times if she turns back to the dark side...
