Hi Gabs. Read you recent post and my pennies worth is a year is a very short time frame but you must live your life as you want
Can I ask why you decided to post on here again because you don't belove DB has worked for you so why tell the forum what your going to do. It's a serious question because if you had already written the letter and W had changed her mind I think a lot of us would appreciate that iknowledge but as it is you knew the response you would get
Yes you can ask anything. first to clarify, I'm not syaing "DB hasn't worked" for me. as I have said, there are many things I have learned here. the basic ideas of not pursing, working on myself, giving her space, etc. have helped me a lot. I would have written 10 letters by now if I had not come to DB.

I'm almost two years into this now. If my WW had wanted back then she would have to make it abundantly clear and I wouldn't feel there would be much of a chance of a new R unless she did regardless of my actions
I'm confused, you want your wife back? She has indicated that she doesn't want you to move on with someone else? why would she indicate that, unless she wants to be with you? I understand that you want her to make it abundantly clear what she wants. This is just my two cents. If I were you, ultimately wanting to reconcile, and she was telling me not to be with another person, I would take that as an invitation. I wouldn't sit back and wait for her to make things abundantly clear. I would ask her why she doesn't want you to be with someone else. A conversation along these lines might open the door to what you have been waiting for. Just my two cents.

yes well i feel like this is one of the cards in my hand and I haven't played it yet. Thanks to DB, and I mean that. I think if I was writing deep thoughtful letters to her earlier on, that would not have been good. I think now that a year has passed, it will have more of an impact when I do this. And the fact that a yaer has passed and I am still loving her means a little more than a month after she left. anyway we'll see. thanks.
