Gotta Keep Trying 2

[Dia]

Hi, GIMA,

I'll second pretty much everything everyone has said. I think W not sharing the big bed with you on the trip was about being afraid of sex rather than anything about you, personally.

I'm wondering if it would be a good idea to communicate to her that it would be 'safe' for her to come back to the Master bed. That you want her presence and company there, and you won't be expecting anything more than that. At some point, if this thing is going to work, she has to be willing to hear your needs and make some sort of attempt at meeting them.

I was scared and nervous when I started asking H for QT, but it worked almost every time.

Edit: Oh yeah, and next time you hold her hand for the blessing, maybe you could try kissing her hand before you let go. If you want to make a big deal of it, make eye contact at the same time. If you want to swing it under the radar, purposely look elsewhere (possibly while saying something to one of the kidlets), as if it's an ingrained habit for you to do this.
