it is too early to tell if maybe she is regretting her decision. Likely she is trying to remain friendly for the kids' sakes. And that is not a bad thing either.
There was not one indication of regret on her part. I don't think it's just remaining friendly for the kids' sakes. We've always gotten along very well, even through the D. This whole process has been weirdly amicable.

She hasn't really done anything to move the D forward, besides filing for alimony because she needed the money. I'm the one who suggested she get her lawyer to send a draft settlement proposal, and then arranged mediation, moving this process along to where we are very close to an agreement. I believe that if I left it up to her, none of that would have happened.
She's realizing her life isn't rainbows and unicorns, and it's too bad that realization didn't happen earlier. Just like I would not have suffered the introspection without her filing and moving out, I don't think she will have her own epiphany without the D being finalized.
