The important thing is to have a balance in everything. Balance being selfish and generous. Balance saving and spending. Balance work and pleasure.

I am trying to balance these things, she asked why did i open a new account so she wouldn't see what i was spending? I told her, and was honest all i have spent is the 390 plus my tattoo, an occasional coffee..

Why is this major?

I am glad you recognize this. The next step is thinking about it and choosing not to say it lol.

Yes think before i speak.. after years of doing the opposite, i am learning this behavior

Doesn't mean she won't change her mind. Doesn't mean she isn't having doubts. ALL it means is that her doubts aren't strong enough for her to stay RIGHT NOW.

you think so?

Why does she feel this way? Did you ask her to explain and validate? She appears uncomfortable with the money you are spending on things like your tattoo. Which is a valid concern in a R/M, although less of one when you are S lol. Make sure to acknowledge her concerns, tell her you won't leave her hanging, that you are not going to make things difficult for her.

She is worried i will do like in the past and just get things i want NOW.. i reassured her i don't do the impulsive things anymore.

You would have every right to be hurt if she did go on a date. Just like she is entitled to her feelings, you are entitled to yours. However, you ARE S, so while you may not think it's okay to date, just keep in mind that she might have a different opinion.


I don't think she will date.. i know she told me if i decide to go on a date, noone comes in the house..

She also mentioned if i do a response affadavit it will delay things, i acknowledged that

i will copy a short version of her email shortly
