Thanks for the words of advice. We only separated 5 days ago after 3 months of her telling me she needed space and me fighting with everything I've got to not go but in the end, I'd tried everything I could think of and left.
I have no expectation, only hope and in the mean time I am GAL and focusing on me.
I am also reading DR. It all makes a lot of sense and has shown me what I was doing wrong.
At the moment, I'm just working on me. As far as I'm concerned, there is no "us" any longer. Perhaps in the future there will be a new "us" but there's still a long road as you say.
