Well, it's definitely true - I get closer, she pulls away. I pull away, she gets closer.
After our talk on Thursday, I guess she was really down yesterday. Last night, she started by seeking out hugs, progressed to pulling me down to sit with her on the couch, and finally to climbing on top of me, and stayed there hugging me. She rubbed my feet, spend some time being close which we watched TV. All initiated by her.
Told me again, she felt like she can't bear to lose me, that I've been the most stable relationship in her life.
It impressed her that she saw me cry a little on Thursday - she said - you never cry - I never saw you cry even when your mother passed.
Yeah, I have that urge again to go get into bed with her this morning, but it's not so strong. Going to let her come to me. If she does.
