Jac, GOOD JOB in not getting drawn into an R talk! Your W was baiting you and you didn't take the bait. Your response was perfect.

Note: It's super interesting that my W thinks (and likely knows) that she has all the power here. She said: "I don't want to give you hope". Like what the hell?
It was a temperature check. She expected you to say something like "I will wait as long as it takes" thus reaffirming your Plan B position. You didn't take the bait. GOOD. Next time you might even take it a step further and say something like "as far as I'm concerned a lot would have to change before I would even consider the possibility of reconciling" and then walk away.
