Yup I like that one Toots.

Had a thought which then immediately ran away like a run awaying thing but just remembered now, I do sometimes wonder if my W is waiting for me to hit the "big red button" so she can not have to be the bad guy, Im not saying thats whats happening with your H as Im not sure from what you've written, indeed this seems more like he's waiting to see if you agree its the end or if you are inclined to offer another option.

I think warm validation and maybe getting into a situation where he can open up more on why he thinks theres no way forward for reconcilation may give you more options to see if thats truly what he's thinking.

Just my .02 of course!
