Anybody else want to weigh in? I would appreciate it.

Bh,
I would tend to say stay away from the flirts until you are sure that your advances will be well received. Of course, I am unable to do this and this is one of the regular backslides. there is a very fine line between flirting and pursuing.

Bhopeful, I reckon your doin a fine job as you are. Don't think a bit of cheeky flirting does any harm when you see she's in a good mood or you spot a good moment and when she's not just switch back to solid rock of a friend mode.

I reckon she's not with the ring this time because she saw yours missing last time.

Whatever you have been doing it sounds like its working so keep on doing it.

Thanks for the input. I think that this is a good spot to use the "Experiment and Monitor Results" section of the book. I'll definitely go slow and watch for openings.

Thanks for thinking that I'm on the right track. I'm not doing anything special. I'm really just being myself again and not the guy that she left and trying to follow the DB principles. I'll be sure to keep you updated as things progress.

I don't know what it is, but man do I feel so alone today. I want someone to hold me so badly that I had to stop working and go cry for a while. It didn't make me feel any better though. I'm just journaling I guess since I know that no one can help me but myself. I'm just not made to be alone.

I think that I've figured out that my Love Language is physical touch. I long for someone to just hold my hand or hug me. This separation is killing me. I feel so empty right now...

Know that feeling bhopeful.

Your doing well, I think sometimes when your doing well, hope builds and feelings flood up to the surface.

hopeful, hang in there. i know the physical touch problem. it has been 11 weeks. 2 little hugs. not nearly enough. pray for strength. you are not alone. remember that.

Thanks. I just got back from Yoga and I feel a whole lot better.

It's hard to get a little taste like I did last night (hug and kiss) and then have it be gone and not know when you could get it again. I know that I should be grateful for what I got, but it makes it harder to detach. Detachment was easy when she wouldn't see me or really talk to me. All part of the process I suppose.

I guess that I'll have to settle for kisses from my pups tonight.

I hear ya B!
I guess that's where I'm lucky to have my new man in my life. My 7 week old son gives me all the snuggles I want! In fact even more than I want sometimes!
Between him and my D, I feel pretty lucky to have their affection. But I do miss the closeness from my H...a lot.
