Need advice: wife of 10 years wants out (3)

[Ready2Change]

Would really appreciate any suggestions and advice.

I will give my 2 cents.

Any resources on DB about piecing,

You are not at piecing. You are still at the busting phase.

I have a strong feeling that she got dumped by OM when she traveled. Some of her behavior soon after she came back is consistent with distress related to the rejection.

How much more attractive (to women in general) are you than when you first arrived here? Are you skilled in new ways of interacting with women?

She is also making some overtures with me

Can you be specific?

and said she wants to talk. She has not stopped being nasty so I told her I can only talk if I feel she is ready to have a reasonable and respectful conversation. She went ballistic.

How good were you at listening and validating?

like preconditions, if I should even accept, what to look out for if I suspect she is considering piecing etc?

You listen to her. You do not reveal your cards. Have you read through my quote threads...I know this has been discussed before and there were lots of good insights.
