In follow up to my e-mail from yesterday, for the past two days I haven't said "I love you" to my wife at the end of our phone calls (after doing so for years). Also, as she left for work both yesterday and today I made sure that I was occupied (shaving, etc.) so that I couldn't give her a goodbye kiss without having to flat out refuse it. I absolutely hate acting as if I'm not interested in her! I feel like a jerk and I'm scared of hurting her. If I really thought it might do some good I could stick it out - but what if it just makes things worse? Yesterday she seemed a little upset when I got off the phone with only a "bye". Today she seemed to be just fine with it - so she's either trying to act like she doesn't care (and she has a better "poker face" than me) or else it really doesn't bother her. Can some of you who are familiar with my situation give me some advice?
