Wife says she wants to leave

[planet]

I would only agree to that up to certain point. I gave my W plenty of time and space. That allowed her much freedom to do what she wants and now my situation has turned to the worse. Thinking back, I may reconsider doing just that.

This is what i'm worried about!

But i guess that is how it works. Work on yourself, be ready to live with, or without the person you love most in the world.

You can only control yourself. There's nothing you can do to control your W.
Understand this. Although we may find our situations moving along a scripted line but the final outcome will be different for everyone.

Your W is still on the 'unsure' phase. She's evaluating. At this point of juncture, there may be R talks. Use this time wisely. Validate like hell and don't defend yourself.
