About your bitterness: How would you like your W to approach you? What would make you open-minded, happy to open up and talk? Is it her laying out all that's wrong about you or her owning up to her mistakes?
It goes both ways: You will need to develop a monologue where you own up to your mistakes.
Right now, you might be short-sighted and see her departure as the mother of all sins, capped with lies, betrayal and more. But she didn't marry you to do this. She's likely hurt to go to such length. You have to recognize that she's doing this in part as a reaction to what she's endured over the years. Don't be too self-righteous, it won't help you.
As for the crickets, I encourage you to comment more on other people's threads. I see you've commented elsewhere only twice in the last 7 days. If we all comment only on our own threads, there won't be dialogues and reactions. Be the change you want to see in thee forums!
