Yep, I've read DB. It was one of the first books I read three months ago.
As for the issues, I didn't know we had any. There were issues with infertility, and that caused my wife considerable stress 13 years ago. I was not as supportive as I should have been during that time. Again, however, that was 13 years ago, and if I could do it over, I would. I was happy with our marriage, and I thought she was, too. I have always considered her my best friend, and she used to say the same about me.
I know that I failed to meet her emotional needs being preoccupied with my phone instead of conversation, but that was a mutual thing. Obviously, if she would give me another chance, I'd hang on her every word. I actually hate my phone now, and I don't even play with it anymore. If she would tell me what she felt was wrong, I'd be more than willing to change.
My focus is on the A, because I know there will be no progress made as long as it continues. In fact, I don't think she will have any contact with me until she ends it. We're not in NC by my choice. I hope that the divorce process will hasten the demise of the A.
