Just realising now that W seems to "shoot first" then think later about what she says or do's, not just with me but in general, if it catches me on a bad day then it gets a bad response.

We spoke today on the phone and I apologised for my behaviour at the previous day, I told her that we are still poor at communicating with each other. Her response was " No Lan you're poor at communicating with me".Hmmmm.... I'll bite my tongue for now and work on my communication skills.

Lan, With the Ws in general: "if you're wrong, you're wrong. If you're right you're dead wrong". I've minimized the flow of "communication" with my W down to a trickle so there's much less chance to be wrong! I was advised to not react and defer response 24-48 hours but later I was advised to not react and respond immediately. I'll let you make whatever sense you can of these aphorisms. And so, yes, indeed, you're bad at communicating with W ;-).

Coming from a w, I just have to pipe in and say that it's dangerous and not very productive to think of "Ws in general" when trying to improve your communication with your w specifically.

Hi N_A,

I think the comment from fb2 was made with tongue firmly in cheek and was recieved that way also.

Yep! We go back to the days when Lan could only imagine the Honey Pot at the end of the rainbow South of the border! Tongue still in check, I mean cheek ;).

Just journaling, Kanli this is for you.

I came across this in the SSM forum(Four basic models for initiation sex) and I thought I would give it a go (seduction) and try and set the scene for W for tonight and see how it went. W and I had this txt exchange.

L : Massage tonight after your shower.
W: Who's massaging who ?
L : I will be giving you one
W: What, a massage ?
L: Yes a massage,
W: OKx
L: Just thought it would be something different at the end of a long day
W: Oh yes?.

I think the penny finally dropped, we'll see how it goes.

fb2, what other forum?
You know today you said "read your previous threads"... Well, I have been and went back today to the archives. There are so many there of mine and as I was reading them, I realised lately I have lost my sense of humor and "shine"... It's mostly because of my dad and all the practical problems I am having. SO, I decided I need to go back to the newfound me (who I had lost and found again and lost again etc etc).
Lan is an easy target. He does have a one track mind, doesnt he?
