Code,

Your WW is temp checking and she is conflicted. Those are good things.
You've got to remember that right now, your W is NOT your W. She's morphed into someone else. Believe none of what she says and only half of what she does. She is deep in the fog and she doesn't know which way is up. She's got to hit rock bottom before she can start coming up for air. It will be painful but you've got to let her make that journey. Its the only way back.

If you've filed for D, that doesn't mean you have to go through with it. Just stop pushing the process forward. Take a breather and relax.

Mach1 told you EXACTLY what you need to do: detach, 180, GAL and drop the rope. Move on with your life. Doing THAT is how you get your W back. And even if she doesnt come back, you will be in a much better place to move on with your life if you do these things for YOU. Spend this time working on you and your issues.

GAL is about building confidence in yourself. It can help take your mind of the pain of what she has done if you do things that are enjoyable and are around people that give you joy. It will give you confidence in yourself and when you have that, she will see it. It will ooze through your pores and it is attractive. It will attract people to you and will attract your W to you.

My advice on the house? Dont do anything like that right now. That is a BIG decision. That can wait for a while. Its ok to start saving and have a plan for that in the future but don't start down that path right now.
