"So I should just be sticking with 180's for now??.."

You should be doing 180s anyway.

"It just seems as though she doesn't even want to reconsider even though we have had 10 years and 2 kids together.. It kind of makes me feel like I have been a drag on her life.."

That's YOUR interpretation. They aren't made to hurt you. You have to let that go. All of that anguish is something you're doing to yourself. You're getting upset just over an inspirational quote. Find some quotes of your own to get you inspired.

"You've got remember that a big part of facebook is a competition of people trying to make out they have the best life. Its basically public gloating. "

That is an totally wrong assumption. You only feel that way NOW because of the situation you're in. If your W posted that she was happy that she was married to you, you wouldn't consider it gloating then.

Both you and jim act as if EVERY action your W's are doing are a way of rubbing your face in the situation. They are not. That's what you two don't understand. This is HER journey and it has nothing to do with you. Once you understand that, you'll understand how to treat her.
