You've been out there meeting other women; is your XW still the best one for you?
Yes I do beleive so. She still makes my heart skip a beat when I see her. Now I am not saying she is perfect, but I do beleive we could overcome our issues.
Had a C appt today. He says to keep feel her out on Sat., see if she is warm and receptive. Go out as friends, nothing romantic. If things go well ask her if I can call her on Sunday, if she is receptive then see if she wants to get together one day during the week. He feels I was ignoring some obvious signs from my exW and I was displaying some old bad habits like ignoring her feelings and bounderies. I should just replied to her text on Sunday, "sorry to hear you are upset, talk to you soon" The sitch with her family has some deep rooted pain and this festered all week which lead to the convo last night. Now last night I sensed she did not want to cuddle and I kind of pressed the issue. Another bad move which ignored her feelings. I should respected that and just of been happy watching TV.
So I got some ground work to make up. He feels we have a good chance to reconcile if I learn patience and stop being the old DDC.
