Be careful when it comes to making big purchases. My ex would do things like your W. She would soften up a bit, tell me she loved me, give me a little kiss, etc. I'm not a genius by any means, but I was able to connect the dots and realize that the behavior from her that I craved so much usually came with requests for big purchases. A new car in my case. We never bought the car, and she went back to not giving a [censored]. I'm almost 100% positive the same thing wouold have happenned if we did buy the car. Buying a boat and lake house with your stay at home wife that wants to divorce you is not a good idea. You can't buy her love, so don't fear that not buying her these things will set you back. She wouldn't be the first WW that hustled her husband into buying a bunch of parting gifts for her...
