Wife in Major MLC...Looking to Vent

[bombardier50]

This is starting to get interesting...

Yesterday afternoon she called me at work (first time in a long time) and asked me if I wanted to go do a little shopping with her after work. Wow...that hasn't happened in a while.

We went to a few stores, chit-chatted, came home and fixed some dinner. So far, so good.

We made more small-talk at dinner. Then, she got guiet, and that Klingon look washed over her face.

Oh no. Here we go.

So I got a short round of the "I don't knows". In case you haven't heard these they go something like this:
"I don't know what's going to happen to us. I just don't know. Maybe it was the kids that held us together. I don't know if I have the emotional energy to love you again. I just don't know."

I gently smiled and told her "I hear what you're sayinig and I know you feel uncertain about the future."

The rest of the evening was uneventful.

So, tell me what you think, but this is my hypothesis: when she starts feeling closer to me, when she starts to feel like her old self again, the Klingon throws up its shields. I think the key here is to keep doing what works until the shields become weak. Anyway, that's what I think.

Gman...good to here you're back on track. I have a dog who I usually blame for any pooting.

Jack...you don't know how many times I've wanted to do that. That day will come, I hope.

Later, folks...
