The Long and Winding Road...

[bhopeful]

She made no contact with me Friday or Saturday and I haven't actually heard her voice since Wednesday. I've been doing pretty good at staying busy. Nothing real exciting, but I'm not just sitting around doing nothing either. So I had absolutely no expectation that she would call me this morning, which she did. We chatted for 45 minutes or so and it was good. In the conversation she made allusions towards seeing me today. Even as far as possibly coming to the house. The conversation ended with her saying that she would call later to let me know what was going on.

Well, she didn't end up coming to the house, but we did meet for a late lunch. It was a nice time. She's been pretty upset about some things at work, so I practiced my listening and validation skills. I think that she might have had a nice time as she gave me a hug before we parted company.

The way that she talks about what's going on in life and what her plans for the future hold bring me no hope what so ever. I guess this is where I have to listen to little of what she says and half of what she does. I shouldn't take to heart the things that she talks about doing. Instead I should look at what she does. She called me this morning and then later met me for lunch. Both were positive experiences, so why I am left wanting more?
