So I am determined to stay dark and to do it for me, not her and not us. However, I did want to get some informed opinions on my situation.

In a case like this, where there are no children and a WAW has moved out, taking all or most of her things with her and given the things she has been saying about the OM and their relationship vs what she is saying about our relationship, is there any reason to believe that she and I have any hope?

I know that nobody can predict what will happen and that every relationship is different but this just seems so far gone. My guess is that she will end up pushing through the divorce, if not immediately, slowly over the next few months. She seems committed to and content with her decision and has taken the stance of 'even if this decision is a mistake, ultimately, things will work out for me somehow.'

I guess the only real potential I see is that she ends up missing me after a while of going dark. This seems unlikely because right now, she doesn't really enjoy being around me (because of all the R tension) and apparently really enjoys being with the OM. So what is there to miss? Also, she seems to have forgotten all of the good things about our R.

The other thought is that maybe in months/years, after the D is final and we have both moved on, we somehow contact each other and a new R starts.

Sobering thoughts.....
