I read your situation. The patience part is difficult and even more so for some of us. I am also a person of little patience. My H has asked me over and over again for over 8 months to be patient and give him space. For the first several months I didn't. I pursued over and over again. All I succeeded in doing was making him more angry and making myself feel more hurt. But when I backed off and stopped calling him, stopped text messaging him and stopped checking up on him, he started coming around. If your wife is going to come back, it will only happen when she decides to come back around. There is absolutely nothing you can say or do to make it happen.
It has taken me a very long time to be ok with this. But trust me, the sooner you give her space and leave her alone, the sooner things will get better for you. In time, she may come back around, she may curious and start contacting you. But more importantly, it does get a little easier as time goes by. The urge to call gets a little less. The overwhelming desire to talk with them decreases. The sun begins to shine through the clouds momentarily and you suddenly realize that you are experiencing periods of happiness independent of how the situation is going. It just takes alot of time.
I vote for buying that motorcycle. I think it will be a great help to you to get out and have something to do.
