Are you seriously going to preach to me about the goals of this site? Really?
You really come across as "Look, baby! I've changed! Honest!" type.
A little story... I have a professional acquaintance. He drank for years. He decided to stop when he realized that his multiple party requests were made because he was the entertainment. So he he is complaining to me that his town's attitude about him hasn't changed much... I said to him, "You have not been drinking for a year? Do you think that makes up for the 28 years you were the town drunk clown?"...
...because while things are amicable now, I dont see how they could be moving forward.
Things will be however you perceive them... how you act on them... how you react to them... They will be be whatever you make them to be.
Show your wife some of growth you tell us all about. Show her that she means more than your own needs. Right now she wants out. No stranglehold, delay tactic, words, or anything is going to change that right now. So show her.
