Thanks so much for your post it really changed my mood.
With self-reflection I was referring to the first e-mail she sent on Monday which contained a bit of guilt. Because her parents have ring fenced her it is interesting that she has now reached out precisely when they are away.
The one-liner I received in return of my warm-hearted reply has triggered a lot of anger inside me. I just can't believe how anybody could be so disrespectful towards 6 years of loyal commitment. But you are right, this is the mind of a WAW we are talking about.
We are 6 months into the separation right now, I presume it will be another 6 months before any form of reflection takes place. This is why it's good that legislation here requires 2 years of separation before D can be filed, because it may just be the time frame it takes for her to come back to reality.
Truthbuster.
