This makes a lot of sense. Obviously I wouldn't be here if I didn't desire to reconcile with my W, and ultimately I do indeed want her to notice. But you're right, a stark contrast could be the ultimate 180 in a certain way.

You're also absolutely right that becoming a better man for myself is the key to moving my life forward regardless of anything else and that my noticing my shifts is what matters. Intellectually, I know this. It's not easy to keep the emotions out of it though. I do miss my W and kids and being together as a family.
