W and I travelled home together after work yesterday - shared the newspaper, chatted a little and I bought some fruit for us to share on the boat.
As part of detaching, I decided to leave her be completely last night and went out for a run along the beach. Just as I was leaving I made a few jokes about things and W said "you are a dear little thing sometimes GH31" and "you look nice". I always used to say to my W that she's a dear little thing so she borrowed my line. This probably sounds very trifling but I hear it so seldom that it's a shock when I do.
When I came back she was in her bed half asleep but I caressed her for a while until she was completely asleep and left her room quietly.
This morning she got into bed with me to tell me how wonderful the caresses were and said "you do know how to do some things to make me happy, don't you GH31?". She also mentioned that she had had lunch with her sister who told her it would be a good idea to get IC - for dealing with her resentment for my past wrongs. W said she had been thinking about some of things her sister had spoken of. I gently said "it hurts to get that resentment out but it hurts even more to keep it in". W said that I wasn't really "The Bad Guy" anymore and gave me a kiss on both cheeks before I left for work - she usually does this but she seemed more enthusiastic this morning.
Nothing really special to add - just journalling really.
Phoenixdeux - I am still silent on threats, ultimata and talk of divorce/separation. I'm still quite bewildered, lost and confused - just like W.
