I've got some great news! My W and I have spent about 3 hours together with our kids over the past week smile We all attended a ceremony for our D4 earlier this week and spent over 2 hours talking together. I kept things very light and didn't engage in any R talk and things went VERY well.

I definitely have gotten the sense my W still has feelings for me. She still has her walls up but they've come WAY down. We've been together on several occasions now over the past couple of weeks and it's been amazing.

I guess I just need to stay the course with what I've been doing. If nothing else, my W and I are sharing time with our kids equally and we now are doing things together with them as well. We seem to be co-parenting in an open, honest and caring way so I am beyond happy with where things are right now and where they may be headed.

I had an overwhelming urge to give my W a big hug several times that we've been talking together. She has opened up to me that her life is very hectic and that she's having a hard time keeping up. I was sympathetic to her and tried to validate her feelings but I held back from going beyond that.
