Does the 180 mean I ignore the possibility of no contact being broken and stop checking

Yes. It means you are now focusing on your own recovery from WS infidelity. You stop checking on and worrying about the cheater. Your own well-being is now more important than your marriage. Focusing on your healing is how you become strong enough to take care of your kids and/or the rest of your family. You begin the process of detachment from your WS.

Her 69 WW
We remain unhappily married.

I have found that I sometimes can't be in the same room as him so I go to bed early , I really hate when he is on his computer, I dont think he notices when I'm not there I feel like I being punished trying to 180.

Is separating considered part of the 180?
We're 30 days out from DDay, I'm just not seeing any indication of genuine remorse and receive push back at every turn on questions (she HAS shown two email accounts but won't give password information and has started to provide some info on places they've gone (during MC) - but the "progress" is really coming at a price. She claims NC and I haven't found anything to indicate otherwise. We're in MC but her contempt and anger toward me (for asking questions) is building.
I don't see any way around separation at this point for my own well being.
Me: BH - 53
Her: WW - 44
Attended Retrouvaille and attempting R - trying to figure out if R is real. Update-it's not. Separated!
