Paul, I agree with the others - you were hoping beyond hope that your W would show some sign of the person she was, or you thought she was. I haven't bothered to have a convo with my H bc he is doing plenty on his own to show he is not that person. Yet we are still in the same place. Where you know it's hopeless but you can't rid yourself of that last shred of hope . . . but that last shred of hope is keeping you stuck in an unhappy place. (I don't mean to tell you how you feel, so correct me if I am wrong.)
It svcks. We use that word around here a lot and it is such an understatement.
