To be TOTALY honest with you..... Wife may have been tired from work but her attitude kind of seemed "As IF". When I asked for my ring back. But her attitude is not my concern right now. I am going to do the Love dares anyway. I have all along been doing the first two days.
Day 1: Love is patient
Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love. —Ephesians 4:2 NIV TODAY’S DARE The first part of this dare is fairly simple. Although love is communicated in a number of ways, our words often reflect the condition of our heart. For the next day, resolve to demonstrate patience and to say nothing negative.

On V day....and continuing from there Last night when I went to bed my ring was on top of her jewelry box. Her jewelry box has red velvet on the top and with my ring on top if reminded me of how you would display a crown or trophy. It was kind of funny when Yoyo said that the guy in the movie made her think of me.. She was more accurate than she thinks...
The flowers I got W when she got the job looked just like the first set he got his wife...
But Valentines day one's WILL be like the Roses.....
Like I said that I was going to keep doing the love dares without thought of receiving anything in return.. At least for 40 days.. But in the back of my mind someone wrote to me and asked.....
Has Wife’s attitude changed these last few weeks because I "canceled" the separation or because I gave her my ring and she was relieved that I have given up? No more pressure?????
Doc
And if I claim to be a wise man, well It surely means that I don't know
