Thanks sandi for everything. Many of the things you've metioned, I've thought of myself, but sometimes we need someone else to really drive the thought home.
Today I met my W and our Ds at the dentist for the girls' appointment. While we were waiting for them in the waiting room, we were just reading magazines when I saw something interesting, I'd point it out to her. She'd make a comment about it and then go back to not saying anything.
While we were sitting there, I couldn't help but keep glancing at her and wondering what she was thinking. She was just sitting there not saying a word. Based on what you asked about how I would treat a friend, I would actually have had a conversation with them. Kind of hard when it's one sided though. So I just left things quiet.
Before we used to call each other at work to see how the other was doing and she's stopped that. I've been doing it every now and then, but should I stop it as well? I don't want to seem needy to her.
When we left, she was polite and friendly, then left. It's odd how the LBS tend to put every action that the WAS does under a microscope.
I do appreciate you walking this journey with me and hope (scratch that) KNOW that my W will come out of it a better and more loving person. I look forward to being the next Steve. : )
