The adventure continues--part 5

[AFWAW]

Hoop,
Thanks for your thoughts.

Ok, just got done with lunch and wife starts on the whole being alone attitude thing again. I asked if something was wrong as she was a little bit snappy. She says, I tried to reach out to you and you rushed me off the phone--oh crap. She said I don't think you want me back. I said why don't you ask me what I want? She said what do you want? I said I want you to come home but I don't want the same marriage we had before and I don't think you do either. She said she didn't either. I know this was bad to get into a relationship talk, I know but sometimes it happens. She said she's having a hard time believing things would be different. I told her that while her perspecitives and priorities have changed, mine have also. She asked me if I wanted her to come home and I said that I still did. She asked why I didn't respond more so to her this weekend when she called. I said I don't know, I was trying to give you your space. She said again, I'm thinking about it still. A lot of subtle things she said led me to believe that OM is not in the picture anymore--I WANT TO BELIEVE that he is gone. Lunch was ok. I didn't start a relationship talk and didn't intentionally get into one. I really think she thought I didn't want her home based on our brief phone conversations. I know this is against gucci's advice how I acted today. I think honesty is the key right now if I'm to succeed in getting her home. That and show her the changes that I've made in myself. Please keep your fingers crossed for me. Thanks...
