If you get the opportunity, try ASAHI beer (Japanese). It has the best after taste of any beer I have tried.
Regarding your PMA around your W, don't worry, it will get easier with time. You have to trust me on that one.
But just stay committed to the approach you are taking. Regardless of what W may or may not say, or do, you have to continue this "as if" approach, and maintain your detaching and GALing.
You saw her reaction when you told her you were going out. That was great to see that she still has feelings for you. My W has shown no emotion to anything I have done, especially over the last few months (or she hides it well).
Early on, she did, but due to my incorrect approach to things, that emotion slowly died. You on the other hand are in a prime position to do the things I wish I had done earlier.
