Also just have to mention - you said a couple posts back that you have been guilty of using your anger to get what you want, and you wanted to prevent your W from doing the same... Now it's your turn. If there's something you want her to do- well, maybe you can take your own advice that you gave to her. Just a thought.

My suggestion? If she calls back with another "I love you can you forgive me?" Answer her "I love you too and of course I forgive you. Want to go out tonight for some hair of the dog?"

Thanks for your posts.

Any chance you could answer my questions from a few days ago re: your W's headspace at the start of the separation?
