Geez Daffodill that does sounds messed up. I wasn't smothering I was non existent which I guess is just as bad in a different way. Your guy sounds like he might even be dangerous?
Things have been going pretty well for me. I've backed way off and if we ever talk about our relationship it's usually because she brings it up. The last counselor meeting was just with her alone so she could talk without fear of hurting me. When she came back she said it went well and we didn't need to see her again for a while. I asked why and she said it was decided that this is going to take a lot of time and as long as we were progressing forward and not stopped going backwards we didn't need an appointment every 2 weeks. I took this as a great sign because that means that my wife feels we are progressing forward.
We've also found a common interest that we are both excited about and talk about a lot. We've decided to get a teardrop trailer of all things so we can do more camping and have had a great time checking out the different models out there. We seem to be having fun again and actually laugh a lot. After all this just hearing her laugh again is like music. Hopefully things will keep going the way they are. Thanks for the great comments and support here everyone.
