My reasons 1) I know deep down that I'm still trying to please him, 2) I don't want to disappoint him, 3) I don't want him to feel that I'm controlling the situation.
KK these are all the same. I will say it for the umpteen time "YOU CANNOT NICE HIM BACK". What you can get from his is respect. How do you do that? LH will show you. H: KK I want you to lift that order now. I need to purchase my new house for me and my whore. KK: I understand you are trying to purchase a new house but I have to look out for my best interest. H: Lift the order now or I will never speak to you again. KK: I'm sorry you feel that way. H: I need to by my house! KK: I understand and I would like to start my new life too but this is a process.

Why are you trying to avoid the topic its a great chance to show him you won't be walked over and you want to move on too.

He knows your plan B by your actions but for fun lets play this one out. Which scenario is more likely? 1. KK: H if we could just drop both attys and just take time apart for awhile I think we could repair our marriage. H: You know I think you're right. I guess I didn't think this through. Lets cancel the attorneys I will retract the bid on the house and dump my girlfriend. Maybe we can work this out after all. 2. KK: H if we could just drop both attys and just take time apart for awhile I think we could repair our marriage. H: Are you crazy? I have a new girlfriend who treats me like a king and I bought a new house. I have been is this miserable marriage with you and unhappy for years. I am going to be so happy now because I will have a new house close to work and my GF is flawless.
I know option two is harsh but it is how he feels right now. Doesn't mean he is right but that is how he feels.
