"go to bed at the same time as her, have a story to share each night" Yep I started doing this about 2 months ago.
"pack up the video games" Did this when we were separated, but brought them out because kids (and believe it or not, my MIL play with them. This from the women who doesn't think they should be played. go figure)
"teach the kids how to take pictures, workout, cook" Yep I'm doing all this also.
"What do you do when you were dating, how did you spend time together? (Besides that you braggart! :/)"
Hmmmm. We used to go out to eat and just do different things carnivals, zoo, museums, trips, etc. What I've been trying to do is to have us do alot of fun and different family activities now so that they're safe for her and then when slowly do things one on one. I think me taking her to the show a couple of weeks ago was too soon or was bad timing since she was withdrawing at that time.
I'm going to think long and hard about the goals.
I think one of the biggest issues facing alot of DB'ers is that they attract their spouses back to a certain degree, but then they run out of ideas and the sitch just stays stagnant or "stuck". That's what I'm trying to avoid. I have to see things moving in a positive, upward direction. The end goal is that I want to break out of the "friend" mode and back to the M mode.
The biggest thing is that I have to compete against OM. When you were going through your sitch, did you try flirting with Mrs. Coach in subtle ways?
