I am currently separated from my wife because she had an affair. I have constantly brought up our relationship to her and our plans for the future. She wants a divorce and I dont, she says that she only sees me as a friend and that's it. Its been hard not to call her today, how can I do an effective Plan A when we are not living together. I think that the affair is over because I accessed her cell phone records and no calls made

Hmmm... it is definitely harder to do Plan A when your spouse is no longer in the home. Why not woo her as if you weren't married? Help her to remember the reasons why she married you in the first place.

The bottom line, I would think, is to keep in touch and let her know you are thinking of her and that you want to remain married to her; that things can change and your marriage can be better than it ever was in the past.

I hope others chime in who have been in your situation.

GABOY,

What are her complains about you long before D-day and after D-day ?. Focus the ones that she is always telling you consistently. Stop taking about R and future !.

Many has done a very sucessful Plan A from a distant.
