HI
Me and the W went away for a few days and it was the best time we had together for the past 3 months. Still no physical contact between us but we talked like old friends again.
The moment we were back and she had contact with her 'friends' again, she started changing again. The one friend is a lesbian girl with her own relationship issues. The other is a male friend who's own marriage is falling apart.
I have an oppertunity to buy a business about 1000 km (that's about 700 mile) from here and the wife is showing interestin the oppertunity. Should I pursue the oppertunity or is this just running away from the problem?

You know..sometimes running away is the smartest thing you can do.
Chances are good that your W will find all new people just like the old ones unless she herself changes [just like moving a delinquent child to a new school]..but at least it gives her a shot..perhaps with separation will come clarity.
I'd probably take the job.

I've realized that my W needs to change. She built up a defense mechanism to cope with problems in her life and now it's like she builds up a wall in front of her and then just moves on with her life. She is also uncapeable to forgive anybody and I'm afraid of what heartache and sorrow will e needed in her life before she turns to God so that he can heal her.
