Today I got up and took the Tahoe that my wife drives to get a nail removed and the hole patched. I got her coffee ready this morning but she was out of coffee pods. On the way home from the store I stopped and got me some soda, her some coffee pods, and some chicken bits/chunks that all of us like. I didn't say anything I just did it.
Then I went out in the garage which was FULL of stuff all over. I completely rearranged it all so she could park the truck in the garage so she and the girls wouldn't get wet since it's getting rainy here. She asked what I was doing and said I was doing it so the girls wouldn't get wet when going to the car. I didn't say I'm doing it for you so you won't get wet.
Then she seen the chicken bits in the fridge and came out and said in a surpised tone "When did you get the chicken bits?!" I said when I was on my way home, I got your coffee, chicken bits, and some soda for myself." She said "Wow, thats awesome. Thanks" or something. Then we had a chair that was falling apart. I fixed it and brought it back in.
When I was all done I came in the house and she asked if the truck was in the garage and I said "Yup..". Then she asked if I was going to put my car back in the driveway and I said "I already did" and then she replies with "Wow, look at you Mr. Efficient.". Made me feel good. But then she went right back to playing the game with that guy again. lol.
I have to get it in my mind that they're just friends otherwise it will eat me alive. I also need to make sure I'm showing her that I do love her by doing things around the house and sending time with the kids. I'm doing things that I would do either way if I was a happy person so I'm not doing things "just for her".
