Wife wants a divorce. An awakening in myself

[Seeker7]

IMHO she is looking at this as a tactic that you want to get her back by selling stuff you have had. It is sorta like the rule 8 but instead of you buying gifts you are selling stuff to try to keep her. It is about the day in day out actions you change in yourself. It is about the small stuff that you change over time. Unfortunately I have learned that it takes a lot of small actions over a very long time that make the biggest difference in stuff. This is probably a decision she made up way before you found out. There is no quick fix to getting them to stay. Trust me I tried a lot of them and it only pushed my W further away. You have to do this because it is what you want and not because you think that it will keep her there. Trust me they can read right through it.
