Things are going well, we're trying to do little fun things together like picnic and camping but overall we're taking things slow. Our D is so happy to see us hugging together she can't have enough group hugs, it's so cute.
Kiki thanks for the book suggestion about the 5 love languages. I asked my W to order it and read it and she promptly did, I was surprised. Turns out her love languages are the exact opposite of mine!
Me: 1. Physical touch 2. Quality time 3. Acts of service 4. Words of affirmation 5. Receiving gifts
Her: 1. Receiving gifts 2. Words of affirmation 3. Acts of service 4. Quality time 5. Physical touch (ahh no wonder! lol)
But at least we know what lights our fires now...
I've been taking mental notes about what she's missing or what she needs or what she wants for the gifts. I've been giving her nice compliments as well as helping her with minor stuff when I'm at her place.
A couple of weeks ago I asked her to stay over and she did and well I couldn't resist her sleeping next to me. I'm kinda concerned about the whole STD issue but some passionate kissing was all I was looking for. However, she pulled away saying she wasn't ready. I told her I understand and pretended to go to sleep but I couldn't sleep for a long time that night. I kept thinking how can she be not ready for someone that gave her 7 years of his life, a daughter and forgave her for all the stuff she put me through yet she was ready to sleep with some random a-hole when she had a choice to come home? I guess I was being too selfish and self-centered but I couldn't help it. The next day she emailed me saying she was really sorry about the night before and that she just needs to heal both physically and mentally and that she really wants to do all those things again. That made me feel better...that was a few weeks ago but in the last few weeks we actually french kissed a couple of times - of course I had to initiate...like I always did but she didn't pull away.
OK back to rated G programming now.
Be VERY CAREFULL. It doesn't sound to me like she is through with this stuff yet. (MLC I mean)
