If she has left you and shows no sign of coming back, you really ought to think about divorcing her. You can do that either on the grounds of her adultery, or on the basis of her "unreasonable behaviour".

If you are not prepared to do that, she may elect to divorce you claiming your unreasonable behaviour. That behaviour may be entirely fictitious, but unless you are prepared to go to the length of defending the divorce (a bad plan), that would get things moving too.

Failing that, either of you can get the ball rolling after 2 years of separation (with the other's agreement.
