thanks Job,

My current situation is:

As i mentioned earlier, i tried no contact/limited contact.

no Rtalks happens.
His "we will separate and go towards divorce" was last Rtalk- from his side.
my apology letter was our last Rtalk- from myside.

These days, only communication is, about kids and finance. and very short. and precise.
I dont "know" this for a fact but my gut feeling is , no cheating on either side.
(honestly if there was disloyalty, i would have been detached from him long ago)

(also -no counselling- thats in history, that failed in the beginning of this year when we were together but on/off "love u leave u" situation. Haven't mentioned since April 2023 and wont.)

yes, after the cops incident, he did changed rooms again ( I didn't do anything this time, i learned from mistakes, wish i Had seen this community before or read few things before but... it happened )
for the past 2 months , we live in separate bedrooms under same roof. share living space and kitchen. i have let him and am giving him space(dont have any options left any way).

Basically I am reacting to nothing. what he does, says or acts like. my reaction is null. ( it hurts inside that he behaves like i dont even exist.)

He is barely home, but when he is (and initiates contact) i receive and respond warmly. precise and positive.
I dont chase him anymore. learned it all but the hard way.
I have started GAL too.
couldn't've done dark (cuz kids)
but doing LRT too.

PS: I read(and re-read as needed) all the rules and books pretty much) during the time i had recently after our separation. time was gift and i used it to read all the wise books. thats how i have now learned my flaws, mistakes and parts i played.
he isn't a saint either, i havent said "all" the things he has done to hurt me and our family in the past 9 years, however i really dont beleive in breaking a family unless chronic toxicity is there.
and he seems to be the person who ups and walks away when things are difficult.
so,
I want to honor my vows, work on myself, get a chance to fix and rebuild what got broken and apply what i learned. no i dont want him back out of fear or guilt or anything. He was madly in love with me chased me and pursued me and i have felt the love very strongly.

there's got to be things i could do to jumpstart this process in hopes of reconciliation. Even if reconciliation takes time, and patience. But at least where some odds can be in my favor.
