I totally understand where you are at, Trixi. W and me just did a 3-day weekend in Seattle, to see a band we like, and do some shopping while we were down there.
We were both nervous, since it was the first time we had spent more than one night together since the sep in December.
When we got there, we had a glass of wine in the hotel bar, and drank a toast to "no expectations". And we ended up having a really nice time, with no awkwardness at all.
I don't know if there was any progress in our sitch, she holds her cards pretty close.
So, if you approach your trip the same way...I think it will be OK. Don't go, expecting huge progress, only to be disappointed as you watch everything under the microscope that we LBS's all have.
I also bought tickets for an open-air concert at the end of August. I'm going, whether it's with her or with someone else!!
Me: 54 Her: 50 and sexy as hell M: 32yrs T: 34yrs Bomb: Sept 26-07 "lost our emotional connection" Bomb 2: Dec 25-07 she's "not feeling desire" She asked if she could come home Apr 26-08! Everything's GREAT!
