Wife ready to walk away

[EyeTie]

Miler, do not ask her anything! Treat her like she is an acquaintance, but nothing more. Spend time with your kids, let her see you enjoying them. Make plans with just you and your kids, start "new" memories without her in the picture. Detach, it's hard, it [censored], but it will help you out in the long run.

With my WW I detached, then kept getting back on the rollarcoaster of "I love you...but I want a divorce." So I finally got off the damn thing and live my own life. I am only a few years younger than you and over the last few months I have stepped outside my comfort zone GAL. I have taken cooking classes, dancing classes (which were actually kind of fun), did a Bikrat Yoga class (I do not do Yoga, but this was the equivalent of yoga in hell) and have already done many things with my kids I normally wouldn't have done. We just did our first road trip, just the 3 of us.

She will notice this, she will make comments and try to cut you down, she will say things like "Too little too late". Ignore it. You are doing this for you, not for her. You are showing her the "new and improved" you. And the best part is that you will find yourself happier in the end.

Keep your head up, give her space, show her you CAN live without her. Do the 180, stick to the rules and see what happens. Good luck!
