You both sound sooooo much better than you did a couple of days ago. Purr, I think you handled the evening like a pro.
The loss of the physical part of the relationship is excrutiating...I know. My W was a real tiger between the sheets, very affectionate day-to-day. Now, when I get a hug or a little peck on the cheek, it's like my heart explodes. It's been over a year since we ML. And yes, they are repulsed by your touch. Yes, it's weird, but common with MLCers.
But maybe this is a good thing. I used to take the physical part of the relationship for granted. A hug or kiss was no big deal. ML with her was nice, fun, but after 20+ years, sort of routine.
Believe me...I will never take a hug or kiss for granted again. Each one will be a gift.
Enjoy your Sunday, friends.
