Well, we had small "connections" over the holidays and then something happened and I guess I surprised her by standing up for her with someone spreading rumors. I could have agreed with them, they are mostly true, but I wanted to defend her honor at that moment. WW found out and was moved. It was the first honest conversation we have had in months and she hugged me. I mean she told me things at a deep, intimate level she hasn't shared in a long, long time. I don't know if it is going to make a difference.

We talked again and she admitted it makes her think but that she still doesn't see how she can fall in love with me again. She would be getting back together for the wrong reasons. So what "works" seems to be finding ways to make a connection. That is when she questions if the right choice is divorce and relates to me normally. On the other hand, I am wanting to be tougher, but the only place left to go is telling the kids and putting the house up for sale. That is a pretty serious move. Not sure if I have to take it that far. If I wait, it will just look like I am stalling.
