I'll have to get a before picture from someone else, since I didn't take too many pictures of myself... Then, I'll have to take a current picture also...
I think you are right about her thinking everybody's gonna be best buddies after a D. That's how she is with her xH also. She once said that they were better friends than husband and wife. I am starting to think she thinks that about us also. We are so much alike: have the same humor, a lot of the same interests (cooking, good food and wine, movies, etc..) I realize now that I wasn't all lovey-dovey with her for a couple of years before the bomb, but I was depressed about my job, my family and friends living thousands of miles away. After I got out of that is when I felt a great passion for her. It felt great!!! And THAT's when the bomb dropped...
Anyways, I am trying to be as detached as I can, but it's really hard when you see each other every couple of days and talk to each other almost daily (I don't call her unless it's about kid logistics, most of the time she calls me, and that's a change from a month ago). For example, we're sitting in the car and she tells me about stuff, asks me about my mom, etc... should I just give short answers, not laugh at her jokes and such? Is that how it will be after D? I just really don't know....
