Yes as she's stated so and we've discussed plenty since her change of mind. She's scared about how to proceed and I'm just trying to keep her fears of failing at bay. I'm nervous too, but if you worry on failing you can't really give it a full try.

I've done a complete 180 on work partially because we have a 50/50 arrangement with the kids, but also because this has been a huge gut check for me. All of the complaints that have come out through our therapy sessions (both in the Fall and recently) are being addressed....this has been one of the reasons she's changing her mind as she's said I'm doing the things she always wanted to and little did I know I really enjoy doing them as I had always been too distracted by work.

Communication, intimacy, being there were all major complaints. Our actually relationship has been far better since separating than before because I believe the stress level dropped. This is one of the things she's most worried about (stress creeping back in when we try).
