Thanks for your encouragement AS. Her reaction to these changes so far has been to ignore them and then jump on any little incident or word said that she can use to prove I haven't changed. She'll repeatedly bring things like this up and I just let it roll off my back when she does.
I am back in the FFM and she has made it very obvious she isn't happy about it. I am pleased to say I am finally starting to feel properly detached from her. It no longer matters to me what she says or does, it has become easy to focus on just myself and the kids.
I have realised that the W I so desperately wanted to R with no longer exists. It's ironic that she doesn't want to be with the man I used to be and I don't want to be with the woman she has become.
lusa, wow, that is a very very astute final phrase in your post. I will be borrowing that one!
