Not much has gone on in past few days. X went to Iowa on Friday. Called me to let me know she got there ok. Was to be home last night but her flight got cancelled so I was shocked to hear from her today letting me know she had just gotten home. Mondays are our date night. She still wanted to do something tonight but had to go to work straight from the airport and then get off at 6:30. I txt her and told her not to worry about tonight that I would rather spend time with her when she is not so tired. I think this went over very well. She called me when she got home and wanted to make plans to go to gym two days this week and maybe a date on Thurs, her mom is coming again so she is not sure how much she will get out. What I am more shocked by is how she has acted when she calls. Very up beat and seems truly happy to talk to me. Tonight I told her I like her new hair cut she got last week, she giggled and said she was glad I like it. She didn't seem to want to get off the phone but I told her that I needed to go, I didn't, and to have a great night. A bit later I txt her thanking her for the call and that I enjoyed the chat. She txt back telling me any time and thanks with a big smiley foace. I think I have gotten more flirty/positive txt from her in the past few weeks than I have since we dated. I think getting on with my life and getting out is helping tons. Not only do I have more faith in myself as a person, I sense she has taken notice in a positive way. I still act somewhat indifferent so I think she is a bit confused. Love it. She also knows about me going out with friends and see's that I am having fun and doing things I have never done before. I feel that the tide is shifting. Hope it ends up where I would like it to. Not too soon though. I have a lot of work to do on myself. So what has been working for me? Not initiating contact, not always txt'n back, going our with friends, staying away from her house and not doing everything for her around there, acting as if I am ok one way or another if we are together or not, (still have a long way on this one), dressing nice, being more calm, keeping my mouth shut and listening more. Hmmm. Where have I read this and heard this before? Guess I need to try things the hard way before I do what I've been taught. LOL Have a great day. B
