Nugget,

Thanks for the insight and comments. W txt'd me today telling me she got the job. I called and told her congrats and that I wasn't suprised b/c she really wanted that job and if a person really wants something they get it (ie. they do whatever it takes to accomplish their goal), if not they just wished for it. She thanked me for my "sweet vote of confidence." She ended the call b/c she had just got to her Mom's house. Before she got off the phone she told me that I was "sweet" again. I did get the "byyyyyyee" good-bye (an indicator that she is happy).

I am having a problem with the "sweet" comments. I have a nagging feeling that I am headed straight for the "friend zone" and not the husband zone. My close friends who are familiar with my sitch say the same thing (its getting to the point that I may stop confiding in them as they are constantly negative, or maybe I am too optimistic). This is where it is difficult to not break down and demand an answer as to whether she still wants a divorce. Although difficult, I will not cave to that urge.

How in the heck do I avoid being looked at as a friend (assuming that she looks at me that way)? Go dark? Date other women (as difficult as that would be)? Stay the course? I am lost. Help!
