AnotherStander, I have read the books, although it's been a while. I think you are correct. She told me she doesn't love me, she doesn't believe her feelings can change, and she left the marital bed. Consequently, I should stop treating her like a wife.

A couple of months ago, I had purchased expensive tickets to a ball raising funds for a local organization. Just yesterday I was thinking of asking her if she was still going to go with me. Thanks to your reminder, I'm not going to ask her. I'm just going to put on my tux and go. Although, if she expects to go, what should I do? I was thinking if she expects to go, I can just say, "I didn't expect you to join me."
