Samcal, thanks for your post. I guess I'm doing ok with being patient and finding compassion and I shouldn't expect that to be easy given the circumstances.
You're sentence about her not being able to show up emotionally for me because she' can't for herself yet makes sense and hits home.
We've talked enough about mental illness and depression (me and my W) that I'm pretty sure this is more about what she's going through rather than our relationship.
She has said some very interesting things regarding a potential future with each other recently (in a positive way) but I try really hard not too read anything into it.
I think the more I focus on myself and our son and just give her the space without pressure the more chance we'll have of R down the road.
Time will tell.
