Sounds like you're doing everything right, just hang in there and stick with the plan! The one thing I'll mention is that I kind of detect from your posts that you have some unspoken expectations that your W is changing her mind and may come back soon. It's only been 5 weeks, it is WAY too soon for her to come back, and she's probably not even thinking it yet. If she were to come back too soon it would likely just backfire anyway. The WAS needs time and space to work things out. LOTS of time and space. LBSs are as a rule very impatient, they tend to get tired of waiting and start doing temperature checks and applying other pressure. All that does is lead to disappointment and frustration. So stay the course and don't expect anything from your W anytime soon. Don't mistake her politeness and her sounding "sad" as meaning she wants to come back, it's more likely just her attempt to help you through this because she knows you're hurting. Just keep at it and be very patient, don't expect any baby steps for many months yet.
