Nick, glad to hear from you. I have also been wondering how some of the other people are doing since I dropped of the boards for a good 9-10 months. What is the latest with you?

Yeah, I hear you on the pointers on rebuilding the attraction. All good tips you laid out for me. My biggest issue is I never have really dated. I dated before meeting my wife but nothing serious or anything that lead to the really whowing phase. Even with my wife we really never dated. It was truly love at first site. Yes, serious. The first day I met her after I left her house, I told the guy I was with that I was going to marry that girl. We did not date much. We had a long distance courtship and the married. So it was really puppy love that brought us together.

Crazy thing. I have initiated the light banter and gone back to telling her how beautiful she is and calling her by little nicknames I used to use. I have been afraid to say those types of things to her in fear that she would take them as pressuring or out of line. But I believe that enough time has pasts that she welcomes then once again. She seemed to react rather well to them. She was much more light hearted over the past couple of days and not so on guard. I will continue with them. Only time will tell if she will continue to lighten up or if she just one days says stop it with that behavior.

I do need to work on planning so activities that we can both start doing together. Something that will help build the affection. Currently we watch movies at my house or go hang out by the pool or go shopping. Fun times, but nothing romantic or sexy about them. Any thoughts?

Glad you dropped me a line. Hope to see you around the board.
