hongaku, thanks for the comment. Hopefully, it's a good thing that she sees the changes.
FFhubby, thank you for sharing your experience on this. I feel for you that when you had the hope, then lost it. It's really really hard to detach. The way I do it now is to let myself to completely lose control my emotions when I am alone. You can cry, shout, or whatever ways you do it. Then it will be easier to be cool in front of her.
I am thinking if it's because I am changing but not the way she is comfortable with. Or my change is superficial and she sees through it. Either way, I think what FFhubby said is right, "slow and steady".
