You can either push your eventual marriage recovery (or divorce) along AND wait or you can simply wait for recovery (or divorce).
It's not like your wife is going to be more likely to divorce you saying "can you believe the jerk, telling me he wants to stay married, forgive me maybe and try to work things out. Telling me that reconciliation will be better for our child. How absurd and unattractive. If only he'd stayed aloof and made me FEEL like he was done, then maybe I would have been more inclined to chase him and beg him to recover with me. Boy did he ruin everything. We might have had a chance if he just kept his mouth shut. "Sharing his feelings" what a horrible idea. I could never recover with a man who has the gull to share his feelings with me"
The internet is 90% complaining and entitlement and I hate it because I deserve better!
