Yesterday, one of my sister's emailed me, and our other sib's, about having pictures taken of our respective families (spouses and kids included) that we will have framed and given to my step-father as a Christmas present this year.
At first, I was thinking nope, can't do that. Then, after a lucid thought, I realized there was no reason not to. I'm not in LRT mode anymore, at least I don't think so. It's just a picture.
Anyone have any ideas about this? My thought is just to tell W this is something the family would like to do, so let's do it.
Act. As. If.
The trouble with having an open mind is that people put things in it.

Of course do it but it is because you have decided to not because your family wants to.

With your help I just posted my first thread in Newcomers. (Thank you for your directions!) It's kinda long......it HAS been 12 months after all.....but if you have a chance I'm wondering if you would please give me your advice about how to flirt with H when he takes me out to dinner to celebrate my birthday in 2 nights. I need advice from men and flirty girls. I have the pu$h-up bra, the midnight blue V-neck knit top that makes my eyes look like azur pools he could drown in, the pencil skirt with kick pleat in back, and blue suede high-heels......now I need inspiration. Trying to move from stage 2 to 3. Thanks!
Another positive night. S had late football practice, so he and I got home a little late. Had a great work out before his practice ended.
Came home, had a quick dinner, then shower and put kids to bed.
Came back to the den and sat (again, TV off) and talked with W while we were on our laptops. Joking and light hearted conversation, mostly about the kids' day.
So, I took a step forward for me today. Before turning in for the night, I went over to W as if I was looking at the magazine she was reading and reached out to touch the fabric of her shirt (also touched her shoulder). Asked if it was silk (I knew it wasn't). She said no, its...I don't remember. She didn't flinch or pull away. Shortly after this, I told her I was hitting the hay (was about 11:30).
Here's a good part - each time I began to make my exit, she started talking to me. After the 3rd time, it was clear she didn't want me to leave the room. But I did. Not out of spite. But b/c I want her wanting more.
Felt good to take this step, albeit a little one. At least I felt like I was doing something proactive again.
