Things have ben going good for me. Pretty much status quo on the R front. We are getting along, talking, doing work around the house but nothing really emotional or physical.
I have been working my a** off at work and my W has been sick for almost 2 weeks so that makes it hard to do anything for us.
We had MC last night and she sent us home with some things to do. Since it has been forever since we hugged or kissed she said that we should start doing that when we get home from work. She told us it would be very awkward which both of us knew but I think my W is willing to try and so am I.
Second we are to come up with ideas of things to do together that are different then we have been doing which is basically dinner, movies and watching tv. We told her we take walks when it is warm and she said that was good. She asked if we talked and enjoyed each others copmpany and we both said that we did.
Lastly she wants us to write down two things over the next weeks of things that the other person does that you either like or dislike that you wanted to tell them about but did not. My W and I do not tell each other when something upsets us or when we want something from the other person. We sort of ignore it and it builds up and festers inside. Its a major problem with our R and the MC said we need to work though it but it will take time.
It was a light session but we are both very apprehensive of doing some of it. We are in a rut and like all things its hard to change but I am hoping that we both put forth the effort and that it will become easier over time. I look at it as I did when I first started to address my issues. It was difficult at first but once they become part of me it was very easy to continue.
Mike, I hope all is well in your life and that your dad and girlfriends mom are getting better.
Bridge, Ken, WT and NDS, I hope all of you are doing well also.
