Separated 2 months, A in full-swing.
When talking with my WW, is it good practice or bad practice to say things that IMPLY:
"I'm confident that I'll 'get you back,' and everything's going to be ok."
"Some things that I'm doing in my life are still based on the premise that our marriage will continue, rather than end."
Is there some fine line between CONFIDENCE and PRESSURE(?), as perceived by a WS, that I need to be wary of crossing over?

Hi tqt,
I don't think it's "bad practice" to exude some confidence in yourself and that you are willingly making chages to benefit your marriage but I guess I would have to hear some examples of what you would actually be saying in order to discern what is appropriate or not.
Usually any kind of relationship talk with a WS who is not actively living with you is a no no.They don't want to hear it and turn a deaf ear.Are you not in a Plan B? I have to catch up on your story I think.It's been a while.
