Oh, I forgot to mention! When I tried to "rock his world," Thursday night, I gave him some finger action. No response, good or bad, but he seemed to like the overall experience.
I talked to him on the phone just now and confirmed, yes, we have a MC appt tonight. We laughed about a few things related to the kids, etc. Then I very gently said, "I know you're at work, but I just wanted to see if you felt like talking about last night. What was going on with you in the car?" He said, "I just get stuff thrown in my face and I don't like being reminded and I don't want to talk about it," he said in an irritated tone. I said, "how did things get thrown in your face?" I said this very sweetly and calmly, because usually I feel his walls going up about halfway through the trip, when we hit a certain town's exit. (Where a guy that I dated while we were broken up was from.) But he started this time at the beginning of the trip, so I wanted to know exactly what was going on. He said, "Going by so-and-so's house, and the exit for such-and-such. . ." So that confirms that it wasn't anything new or different and I hadn't unknowingly "thrown anything in his face". I said, "You know, I haven't mentioned anything about Pam or emails or anything like that." He immediately got defensive and raised his voice. Told me not to compare them and I continued in a very soft tone. "I am not comparing them other than you have a hurt and I have a hurt and when I get reminded of things that make me upset, I try not to let them create that wall between us and I would hope that you would try to do that as well." He kind of muttered, yeah, okay, I'm at work and have to go. I could tell he was trying to acknowledge my suggestion somewhat, but he was done talking. I told him I loved him (did not apologize) and he said it back.
Oh, and we booked our room for Missy and Joe's wedding in July. We will be staying at the Luxor for 4 nights. ;D I mentioned it on our drive home (when the exit signs etc did not seem to be an issue for some reason??). I said "you should give me some money to go shopping at Victoria's Secret and I'll buy a special something to wear while we're there!" He gave me a lukewarm response and I said, "why doesn't that sound good?" He said, "I'd rather have you go to Christie's Toy Box (adult store). I want you naked the whole time." I said, "ok!" Then asked, "what would you want?" He didn't say. I said, well we should go look sometime. He said ok.
