Sp, I, too, wish nothing but the best for you but right now it seems you're reacting to what other people say or what they might think.

Those people aren't in your marriage.

I honestly feel that I could make every positive change in myself and become the man that only a fool would leave...and wife still wouldn't consider giving me another chance.

So the self-reflection and changes were only in the hopes of getting her back, not to become the man you want to be? Not to be a better father, a better friend, a better business owner?
