If you want to do Plan A, then read over this:

The most difficult part is doing this with no expectations, as it's quite normal to expect her to "snap out of it" as you improve yourself and show her how the marriage can be.

Her back and forth, up and down, is normal, by the way.

Call Steve and make an appointment for yourself. Get his guidance on how to persuade her to get on the phone.

Then ask her to go out on a lunch date with you. If she agrees then focus on being as pleasant as possible.
