She knows I've been reading...

Sandi,

I read your first posts. And some of your recent ones along with your rules. It seems you have come a long long way. Im wondering if you could chime in on my situation if or when you have time.

A week ago I was ready to give up after a year separation. I have tried so hard and everything just made it worse. I have had physical symptoms from emotional stress months ago. But I was giving and convincing etc. Now I am focusing on giving to myself and my daughter.

I do love my W and am very attracted to her, we had great sexual chemistry. Im also a good looking guy and successful. Other woman think Im crazy to still be trying. But I feel how I feel and I cant stand the thought of seeing my 3 year old daughter only half the time.

I am trying to get the respect and attraction back from my WOW. I have been too nice and too giving. She doesnt work and is trying to get out of a bad living situation she has a toxic relationship with her mom where she lives now and they cant communicate well.

I told her I would get her a rental property and help her since she needs money and I make solid income. We have both had other partners and it got serious at times but have both stopped and are working on ourselves. Not sure if she is telling me the truth Im trying not to care. I have cut communication down 95 percent by text. IF or when you have the time if you could read over my posts I'd really appreciate it. I am very analytical and smart and have done what I think should work instead of what actually does. Im also impatient and trying to work on that.

Thanks again for everyones time who is more experienced here. Ive been with my W since I was 24 and now 33. So Im still learning A LOT about relationships, emotional intelligence, marriage. I would do almost anything to get my W back to the woman she was in the M but she is like a different person almost all the time. Trying to focus on GOL and 180s reading and learning being a dad and running business.

Thanks again!
