Walk Away Wife - My Sitch

[bhopeful]

Scratch that last post... SHE CALLED!!!

I almost didn't answer because I wasn't sure that I could stay positive, but I'm glad that I did. We mostly chatted about work and stuff, but she pushed me in wanting to know what I've been up to lately. She came right out and asked me if I've been involved in any new activities. So, I told her. Up until now, I've been pretty coy about what I've been filling my time with. But since she pushed I told her about all of the GAL stuff that I've been doing. I hope that was the right move, but since I don't ever see her, telling her is the only way that she's going to know. I cracked a few jokes and one had her laughing pretty good. I listened to her complaints about work. All in all, I think it went pretty good. There was no mention of the offer that I made to take her out to dinner and definitely no R talk. There were some long pauses when we really didn't have much to say and she was just like um, so... In retrospect I probably should have been the one to hang up first, but it felt good to hear her voice and her lingering on the phone felt good too.

I'm off to get some dinner, but I wanted to share this. It's amazing how one simple phone call can change your entire outlook for the night. I'm still going out alone, but now I think that there will be a little skip in my step...
