rd. Yes you and MrBond are right. One year ago was the cut off point and she made no bones about it being all over, nothing to be done, it is was it is. No chance of going to marriage counselling.

We had been to Relate (MC) a few years ago but it didn't work as it wasn't action orientated, just a talking shop. She even wheeled out something that I apparently said once "you won't change me" which of course is true, we can only change each other but she used this as part of her excuse that I wasn't able or willing to change. I tried to say I didn't know how, but of course it's 'too little, too late'.

I think she tried half heartedly after Relate but I'm beginning to think maybe she has had this in the back of her mind for years as om is her ex boss from a previous job. As I mentioned, to my mind the killer was me taking a two month contrast job away from home that turned into years. We didn't make enough effort to stay close and drifted apart.

RAI. I haven't really read much on the other boards. I'll have a look though. ww sent me a text, a couple of months ago, in response to me saying she didn't care how I feel, trying to tell me "I do care how you feel. Knowing I can't do anything to help it or alter it pains me in a way you undoubtedly wouldn't iamagine. And I will probably carry that with me indefinitely."

I didn't reply.

I'm sorry you were bomb out on your anniversary. That was very insensitive.
