Sorry your here but welcome a board. This place is awesome and is the only reason I feel as good as I do!

She does have a stubborn side, so I'm expecting some silence after her "not speaking to you anymore" threat.
I am right there with you. I know my W, she is stubborn as h$ll, never admits wrong and I will not give up easily!

I'm not feeling bitter at this time; in fact, part of me feels sorry for her (but no longer in a way that will allow me to be manipulated). She must have been in a hard place at some point, and I didn't even see it.
Me either it doesn't do any good. As soon as you can get your confidence back the quicker you will get on your feet and be able to move.
Do whatever you need to do to get your mojo back. I have been hitting the gym hard, bought a ton of new clothes, lotions, creams, cologne, new hair cut, etc.

Sometimes it hard to pick up the signals or you see the signals and don't understand how serious they were.
the best thing you can is just take care of yourself and take all the focus of your W.

After that, I'm expecting some 'woe is me' stuff. "You win. I'll never be happy again, I've lost my family..."
The general rule of thumb is to only respond to actionable text messages or emails. Don't respond immediately, vary your response times so she doesn't think your just sitting around waiting. When you respond keep it short "Yes", "No", etc.
