Hi G. For me , it's all about moving forward. What's going on in your home is heartbreaking because you see and interact with W everyday. It's very hard to detach under those circumstances if not impossible
I found it much easier to cope once W left and it makes the situation more real
I've read a lot on this site about how it takes real loss for the WAS to feel like they are actually losing something. As I said , right now your W has no loss to feel and if anything her life is better ( in her eyes ) because G is trying to impress
In my own sitch it's taken W being gone for almost 2 years to accept that she can't come home and that was two years of financial hardship and loss of respect from her kids and family. I'm sure there are many positives from her point of view but it took two years for her to know that I was done Your W knows your very far from done so why would she change her attitude or feelings
Just my thoughts G but I've posted them before. I truly feel for you and empathise completely
