I have read that it could happen, may take months or years or may never happen or even if it did happen she may never actually admit it.

And if someone tells you a figure, how will that change things? Is 50% enough? Is 75% enough?

I don't mean to be cruel, but your best bet is going to be getting yourself healthy and happy rather than wait for something that may never, never happen...take care of yourself. Focus on YOU. If by some chance you end up back together, that's a bonus, but you can't and shouldn't put your life on hold waiting for a miracle that may never occur.
