Job, That's interesting, thanks for replying. If you are right, then my wife has been in a midlife crisis for almost three years and maybe she is almost done with it. Very interesting. As I said before, she is the one who left and she is the one who needs to put 100% of the effort in restoring the relationship, not me. I will be very polite with her and give her as much time as she needs. I do feel a lot of compassion toward her, she had a rough life and she has been a great mother all the time. Every time I look at her, she starts crying, so she tries to avoid eye contact. Maybe she is in the depression stage of the MLC, no idea. I hope we can restore the relationship as soon as possible in order to avoid trauma to the kids and hopefully it will be a lot better than what we had before. The divorce is good, it's the cure. The problem was the marriage which is a legal and financial contract that has nothing to do with love. I am happy about the divorce. Having said that I will always be committed to the family until death do us part.
