I think that there is no specific amount of time to see remorse. I think that the important thing is that you are honest with yourself.
Honestly, I don't know how you can talk about her caring about the AP so much without challenging her on that. I say this because my H went through the same thing, and now at over a year out, I am having a constant struggle with this. Maybe it's the difference between male and female BS here, as I've heard that love is the biggest source of pain for betrayed women (which is certainly true for me) and sex is the hardest for betrayed men to manage.
Here's the thing about remorse; she may think fondly of a time or something with her AP, but when she is remorseful, those thoughts will be overshadowed by the horror and tragedy of her actions with the AP.
It kills me, absolutely kills me, to hear anything positive about the AP from my H, but I know they felt 'in love' for their 2+ year affair. I think that I had to accept (which many people here disagree with) that they did feel love, that it was as 'real' as any feeling can be when they were in it. What I had to work really hard at was helping my H understand the following things;
-Whether I discovered it or not, it was always the worst act toward his wife and children that he has ever committed. He held on to a 'wish' that I had never found out and that he could have just ended it and managed the shame himself for a long time, but that did NOT cut it for me. I needed him to face the pain of shame and admit that it was horrible whether or not I found out. In the same way that we teach our two boys to act responsibly even when they are out of sight and ear shot of their parents.
-When he thought about something positive they did, a 'trigger', I asked him to think about what I was doing at the same time, what was happening in my life parallel to those 'good memories' he was having. That's something that he fought hard, because it was very difficult for him to face in himself. He stated early on when he was in the thick of his fog that 'if he felt bad for me, who was left to feel bad for him'. It sounds horrible, and it was, but I want you to know that he was honest with me about his feelings for the AP as well, and struggled with whether or not he loved me or her the most. We only stayed together for our kids in the beginning, and that fog took about 4 months to even begin to fade. I'm counting 4 months from the second dday (when I discovered there had still been text contact and confronted the OW and my H). NOt until ALL contact and paraphernalia of the AP was totally removed from our lives to any healing, R, or progress begin. It was also when this happened that 'the gloves came off' so to speak on my end, and I think my fog lifted.
I was so afraid in the beginning, so in shock, so willing to take absolutely anything to give my family and my children a chance - it would easily be described as desperate. I would say that listening to my WS describe his love and relationship with his AP was abusive to my soul. But, it was part of our journey, so it is what it is. We still have discussions about my feelings, and I'm still not positive if I can live with this forever, but I hope I can. I hope my H continues to show true remorse, but I don't know. I do know that I have a choice, that my H has a choice.
Lately, I feel like (and I really don't know if this is true), the evidence that makes me believe he is remorseful is that now he is concerned about my fidelity. We are both transparent about everything, and he has had a lot of requests for me lately (proof of location etc.). When we talked about it recently, he shared with me that his A has scared him, that he realised how easy it is to happen, and that he often thinks 'why wouldn't my wife connect with someone else and have an A, look how I've treated her', and he's scared. If nothing else, that lets me know that his mind is in our M now, and not on the AP.
That's what you need. You need to remove the AP from your marriage. There is no way for you to move forward, no hope for a real reconciliation until the AP is removed completely - including emails and anything else. If she is able to do this, you WILL see a difference. You will see a change in your conversations, her thinking, her fog, and her treatment of you.
I know you say you trust her about not looking at the emails, but, honestly, she doesn't deserve trust yet. You should not be trusting her, she should be working to prove that she is trustworthy by doing everything you need or want. I spent the first months recovering from shock, but then my work in IC and journaling was to believe, really believe, that my kids and I would survive if the M did not. I had to take some legal action (names on documents) to make myself feel secure and to let H know that I would not accept any more abuse in the form of his A. And I had to mean it, if you don't really mean it, it holds no power.
I think, at 6 months out, you need to take the gloves off and prepare yourself for either outcome. I think you need to decide firmly what you need from her, and communicate it concisely and clearly. I wrote out a contract and had my H sign it, and carry it with him in his wallet. I laid out clear consequences for specific actions (things like; any contact with AP, list of ways, and he must leave our home and M. Lies by omission will count etc.). And also, I mean it.
She may have to work through some feelings for the AP, but that should be done with her IC, NOT with you. I felt in the early days like I was supporting my H through a break-up, and it was disgusting. It still disgusts me today, my work is in keeping my mind in the present and not festering on the horror of those days.
Be good to yourself, and do what's right for you.
Hugs.
