I'm glad to hear your wife and you had a nice time out with the neighbors. Times like these help to maintain your connection, and gives you something to build on. I've always been an advocate for maintaining and building connection, (when possible) and it seems to have helped in my sitch.
Yoga class is fun. Try other things too. Keep on finding your own happiness... it's the only way.
My wife was sure she wanted D... That was almost 3 years ago. I told her up front I would not stand in her way. Taking off all pressure to work on the M is the key. You need to get your adult girls on board with this.
I remember the months and months of my wife going to bed without saying a word. Now she goes out of her way to say goodnight every night. Things will get better for you. Continue to give your wife plenty of space and time.
I like to think of it as a dance that I'm letting her lead. If she is connecting with me, (talking, asking me out) I'm there for her. If she's pulling away, I give her space.
Do you guys still live together?

M: A really long time. Crisis: 5 years. She's still worth it.
