Stage 2.25

[istherehope]

OK,

Starting a new thread as the other is likely to lock up.

I am finally feeling more comfortable with things in my R, and after nearly 2 weeks of consistency from H, am ready to believe...

Last night was seriously the best night we've had for a very long time, even pre-bomb. And after we went to bed, there was ML and not some weird waking me up ML, but we were both fully awake. We had been drinking so I'm sure his inhibitions were lowered, but he fully wrapped himself around me after and went to sleep this way. This morning has been nice too, and I am on my way into town where he's asked me to buy some painting supplies for "us". He's also referred to plans next weekend. He is completely ignoring the fact that I am supposed to housesit for my friend for 3 weeks starting next week. I will have to bring this up soon...

So even though, and maybe because, we have had no R talks, things are progressing...he now smiles when I talk, laughs at jokes I make, and asks my opinions on things. He says thank you when I do things for him and is always showing me things on his computer, sites he's found, movie trailers etc.

Honestly now I can breathe and let him take up some of the work. Really, for the 1st time in ages, I feel that there is real hope.

ITH

PS no worries as I am also GAL-am meeting a friend in town for lunch today-forcing myself to still be active with others even though I want to snuggle with H all day
