Thank you for the insight AnotherStander. Now that I’ve read the pursuer-distancer dynamic, it does sound a lot like what me and W had prior to the marriage. I will try to back off for a couple of days and see what happens.

I am also thinking of living separately for a few weeks to give her the space she seemed to need. Is this wise? Or is it going to back-fire in some way because she doesn’t seem to want me around and doing this seems like giving her what she wants.
