Maybe I should be in piecing part 6?

Thanks WDID. I appreciate it. I always knew it would be hard to get her to open up to me after this. She's always struggled with being open with her feelings with me, even when she liked me

This calling her on her chit is kind of cool. We both took the afternoon off as we have to leave for the out of town wedding in about a half hour. I was home before her and when she came in the house shortly after me, I was surprised because she'd said she was going to run out and get a new pair of shoes after work. I asked her about shopping and she made some snide comment. I asked her about work and got another "fine" (and we all know what that means, right?).

So I called her on it. I asked "Is something bothering you?" She said no. I said, "have I done something to make you mad?" And she replied "no, why?" I said, "you've just been being really short with me today and I just wanted to know if you were ok or not". She said "I'm fine".

So shortly after, I went upstairs to shower. When I came downstairs she was taking a nap but when she woke up, she was totally different. Talking to me in a nice way. Asking me questions, etc.

I ran to get a wedding card and stopped to pick up a latte for us on the way back. I took it up to the bathroom and she said in the sweetest voice, "thank you".

So, I think I learned a valuable lesson. 1) Call her on it when she's treating me like chit. 2) She's really struggling, dealing with all this and this is her gig to deal with, not mine. I'm here to help her through it any way I can, but she's going to have to figure this out on her own.

We're off to the wedding in a few. I'll check in later tomorrow.
