Yesterday's gone. Tomorrow's not here.

Pinn, I think your approach makes sense. So long as you focus on you and improving yourself, I think you'll find will bring higher confidence and strength from which you can continually review your interactions with your wife as they occur. I know with the minimal interactions I have with my WW now, I have little to no expectations to negative or positive outcomes of our discussion ( which is more business like when we talk ). I too look at small positives like when WW shares small things in texts once in a while, but still don't hold expectations nor mind read how she feels which is tough.

Just wanted to say I feel parallel line to your thoughts above.
