I doubt there's much of an ulterior motive to your W reaching out, I think she just misses you. When she doesn't talk to you or see you for a while she starts missing you, and eventually she misses you enough to reach out (which she probably hates doing, so she's got to find some reason for it like the CBD oil). It's a product of your detachment. Now it doesn't mean she wants to recon, she's just trying to hang on a little bit in case she decides that's what she wants later.
^^Nothing scientific about that, it's just my intuition based on some similar situations.

You've probably heard me say it before but I really do believe that most marriages never recon because eventually the LBS decides it's not what they want. After we go through the healing and growth process, many of us come to the realization that regardless of who the WAS was when we married them, they are no longer that person and no longer who we want to spend our life with.

I'll probably be posting less on this forum, even less that I have been now. My full focus is on my work out, I've gotten so far that I am considering perhaps competing in the next few years. But we'll see about that. I'm turning 40 in less than a month and I'm proud of myself for keeping this up, in February 2 years since BD.
Outstanding! I really thought about competing in amateur bodybuilding about a year ago, but Covid has really set back my progress a lot. I'm not getting any younger either and finding it harder to stay trim. Congrats on your upcoming bday! I will be 60 in June, can hardly believe it.
