The answer

We thank the questioner for his eagerness to reconcile and overcome the disagreement with his wife, and clarify that divorce is not the optimal solution for marital disputes, and that the phrase "consider that everything between us is over" is a metaphor for divorce. If he did not intend divorce by it, but rather to frighten the wife and push her towards reconciliation, then nothing is required of him and the wife remains under his marital bond.
