I had previously been thinking that a night like this would lead to some big epiphany and things would suddenly get better. I'm not expecting that anymore. I'm more along the lines of thinking that these are drops in the bucket helping to fill it up.
When we were done..."cuddling" she is the one who asked to stay in with me. This preceeded by her initiating some of the kissing earlier, saying the affection this week wasn't just for me, curling her head into my neck/shoulder and saying that she wanted to sleep there because it is a place of "comfort" for her have all been really nice.
