Well my W called after work, she asked if we could meet up at the fair this weekend and take D2 on some rides. I said that sounds good and we agreed on a time. I thought it would just be us, but before the convo ended she said her mom would be with her.
Not sure what to think of it all. When I first started DB, one of the goals I wrote down was to have my W ask me to do something together. I did reach this goal but don't want to put too much into it. I am a little nervous about the day already. It's funny how someone I lived with for 5 yrs can make me nervous to see her for a few hours. Gonna take a deep breathe and keep my cool.
It's hard (if not impossible) to make goals that are based on another person's actions, IMHO. Do you mean like...be the man she would want to ask to do something together?
MIL is probably her safe guard, preventing any personal R talks.
It is not about what you feel should work in your M. It is about doing the work that gets the right results. Do what works!
Not a bad way to look at it Country. W called after work to ask if I had heard anything from our realtor today. After a short convo about the house, we had probably a 30 minute convo about everything under the sun. Quite a few laughs and I could teLl she was also enjoying it. Felt good to just talk to her and nit have it be about business. I don't know if I'm making progress or setting myself up to fall, but I gotta keep rolling the dice!
Talked to our realtor last night after work. Due to some setbacks, we might not be able to close by the 31st of this month like we had hoped. I called my W and told her what I had heard. She was upset about it and tbh, so am I. I just want to finish our business with this house and move on. We then talked about our D2 and how my w was going to let her try a night with no diaper. We discussed how she was doing on potty training and a few other small things. We wished each other a good night and that was it.
This morning I woke up at about 430. At 5 I was still awake, I know my W is up and getting ready for work, so I texted to see how the night went. She immediately called me and her first words were "I've been wanting to call you!" We then talked about how great our D2 did with no messes and how we would have to work together to help her keep it up. A little small talk and we were done.
I texted my W after I picked up D2 from day-care to tell her how D2 did all day with this. She called me a short while later. We talked about D2 and everything under the sun. Probably a half-hour convo. We have been having a lot of these lately, which I'd be lying if I said I didn't enjoy.
We are still on to meet at the fair tomorrow (her idea) I'm going to DB my abutt off. Wish me luck
Well I got to the fair a little early with my D2. My MIL came along first, is at and talked to her for a few minutes. My W called her to tell her she was just arriving. This can only mean that my W stayed by OM's last night. Yippie! Anyways, we all met up. The rides didn't start until noon so we went to the animal barns and fair exhibits until they did. Our talking bounced between all three of us. I didn't want to run the convo but I also didn't want to be mute. It was a good time, pretty much what I expected. A lot of laughs and pretty steady conversation. Towards the end (2 o'clock), my MIL left and I said I was going to take D2 by the games and get her a prize. My W decided to come along with us. We probably spent another 45 minutes there just walking around with our D2 and talking. There was a little awkward silence. That was to be expected. We walked out to our cars together. I could tell my W was having a hard time saying good by to our D2. So many times I just want to say "is it really worth it!!" But the DBer in me knows that it would only be counter-productive. She will has to reveal her cards soon. As far as I know her plan is to file once the house is sold. Time will tell
