Julia,

thank you so much for all your thoughts and positive vibes!!!

I was just wondering about the conversation with him about his playing opportunity. Were you mirroring his concerns or do you hold those concerns for him?


I think both... he had those concerns, otherwise he would have just said yes to the opportunity. Also I had those concerns, but I was trying to just ask very open-ended questions instead of telling him my opinion.

At several points in the conversation he asked, "do you have any more thoughts?" I was really careful to try to listen listen listen and not interrupt.

I love that he asked you BECAUSE he knew you were listening. If you voluteered your thoughts he wouldn't have thought 'hmmm I wonder what T is thinking, maybe she would have a good perspective on this'. (anyway that is what I imagine \:\) )


that is such a good point!!! thank you!!

I love that you did this because it reflects this

He thanked me for being a sounding board

Isn't that what couples do? H and I certainly used to use each other as a sounding board all the time.


You are so right on!!! I think that's why I felt so warm and fuzzy and strong at the end.

If I weren't at work I would be doing a little Chandler-esque (from Friends) victory dance for you ;\) Maybe I should just do that anyway hee hee.


Julia, you make me laugh out loud!!!

Do you think I should call him even though I'm sick???

((((JULIA))))
love,
T
