before I left for my recent business trip, she did come over, gave me a hug, told me to have a safe trip (I was driving) and she gave me some snacks she had made for me to eat while I was driving (some peanut butter oatmeal squares which were surprisingly good or maybe I was just damn hungry - LOL!)
I called her during the trip and left a quick voicemail to let her know that I appreciated the snacks, I was very hungry that morning and they really hit the spot (it was the truth), the voicemail maybe lasted 10 seconds. When she got it, she texted my cell and said thanks for the voicemail and she told me I was very welcome and that she was glad that I liked them and followed it with a happy face emoticon.
So when the mood strikes her, she can be very warm & friendly and making me a snack for my road trip I think shows that she cares for me (even if just a little bit) but she is guarded because she doesn't want to get pulled in and make me think that it means something (that's what she says during other similar occurrences).
What are your thoughts on going out to restaurants with her & the kids? I always pick up the cheque at the end of the meal, should I let her do this every now & then, get her to invest a little bit in me since I'm always doing it or should I just pick up the cheque and not worry about it. I read somewhere that it's good to have your separated spouse invest in you as much as you do in them because something becomes more important & valuable when you invest more time & resources into.
Yes I'm very yappy today, it's been a while since i've posted an update ;-)
