Thanks Rose. I appreciate the feedback on the boundaries.
For the group, there was one change over the weekend, I had a discussion with my wife regarding having a discussion with the kids about our marriage difficulties and she stated she is not ready to do that, which is a backtrack from prior conversations she's had on the subject. I don't want to have the conversation without here, so am putting that on hold for the moment.
A bit of mind reading here, but she's also been making comments about a future together with us. She has not done this for some time, so I think getting into the house, and realizing she could have to give it up is having some impact on her. Again a bit of mind reading on my part there, but it's interesting to see.
In addition, this is probably just be cake eating on her part, but I told her that I had a conversation with a Divorce Attorney, and ran through the highlights of what she would need to know and be aware of. She in turn asked my to be patient a little bit longer as she's still trying to figure some things out...
I also had a really emotional day on Saturday, felt very down and sad, and realized that despite feeling that divorce is my only recourse at this point, that a D is not what I want. So I'm backing off of that for the time being, and continuing to work on me. As others have mentioned, there is no time limit or expiration date on this. Big picture, I've know about the A for a tad under 5 months, which is a pretty short time frame. I can be patient a bit longer and continue to work on myself, which needs to be done anyway.
Thanks all for the continued support and have a great week!
