Probably not though. I mean can you really say a marriage hinged on the fact that I went to bed.
I don't think it hinged on going to bed. It hinged on you saying you are as important and valuable in the relationship as she is.
A relationship of equals. If she is seriously wanting a way to return and work on your R then the trick is to make sure she understands why you felt the need not to stay up.
I wish I could go back through my 16 years and fix everytime that my wife thought I could read her mind and everytime I thought I was but was wrong.
I think your trick is to make sure you aren't trying to read her mind. That's pretty hard. Hope it all goes well.
