I can hear others, including Sandi, saying that I was stupid for trying to think my wife would be able to reconcile at the same pace I want to... so knock it off, GAL, and detach.

Detaching is tough when you're trying to reconcile, going at different speeds, and have a MC/pastor who's telling both of us we need to spend 15/30 min/day working through feelings and emotions, but my wife has very little to say. Just will sit there and expect me to talk. I can talk her ear off, and she's mentioned a few times that I'm too emotional, and just need to stop feeling the feelings from happening... which just pisses me off, since it feels like she doesn't care.

I think I'm buying a new matress for the box spring downstairs. I thought we'd be back to having physical touch by now, in the same bed, if we were working on things, but it looks like that might never happen. It's just something she's really not interested in doing with anyone - she'd rather not touch, hug, kiss, or have any physical contact. She's done that with the kids as well, and to her, that is completely normal.

Am I crazy to think this just might never work, if she keeps saying 'she's not that type of person, I can never give you what you want or need'?
