Quote: Get the TV out of the bedroom, mistake I made, it steals connect time, read or listen to radio, or music. Make sure she does not have to compete with it. TV for sure out of the bedroom. If she asks, say you read somewhere it interfered with your sleep pattern. Actually it is was on Dr. Phil.
That would be right up my alley. But....if(no when) she returns to our bed, she MUST fall asleep to the tv. It's like a night light for her. There doesn't have to be any sound. Just the glimmer of the tv. After she's off, I can turn it off. But that is a good thought. Lately, when she is talking to me, I mute the set and listen.
Quote: She then told me how her day sucked again. I wish I could do something about it other than listen. Dude, have you read Mars/Venus, all you have to do is listen, thats all, that is helping.
Negative, I haven't read those books. I guess I should/will. She has them all over the place. I don't know if she's read them. The spines don't look cracked.
Quote: I hope these are good small signs. These are big, she is sleeping, and talking, remember sex is way down her list, NO PRESSURE!!
I do hope these are big positive signs. I have to keep reading her to see what happens.
As far as Christmas, we told each other we wouldn't get anything. Last year we said that and I did it anyway. She was hot. She is one of the most giving people I know(like my money, food and such ). But for me to give her something and her not get me something got her mad. We'll see how this plays out.
As long as I'm here, I may as well update. Last night, W came home an hour earlier than normal. Of course, she talked about how her day sucked again and how the wind storm we had nearly knocked her off the road. No big talk. Just little everyday topics and she dozed off. This morning, she didn't try to wake me up and didn't say to much of anything. She seemed as if she was going to say something to me. She sent me a nice video of cats doing funny stuff via email at work. That was cool. We have 2 cats.
She really shocked me by coming home 2 hours earlier than normal. She said she wasn't feeling good and her feet hurt. I asked her if she wanted me to get her foot machine which she said yes. Light conversation, mostly money wise and stuff for the kids for Christmas. Still, I'm glad she feels comfortable coming home earlier. She once said she would rather stay on one of her jobs than come home. This is a good thing I hope.
Later, I think she was teasing/testing me. She pulled her feet out and started doing stuff to them. I think I mentioned in an earlier thread I have a foot fetish. Well so what, it's one of the most common fetish around. Or at least I heard that.
Well anyway, she was working her feet around and painting nails and such. In the past to start my engine, she would move them in and out of my sight. I saw her trying to catch me looking. I remembered what she said the other day about not liking me watching her in that way. So, I watched her in the fire place screen. I let her catch me a couple times and I think she was hip to the fire place screen gimic.
I don't know if this is a test or trick. Was I supposed to do what I would do before this and get started.Or was this a test to see if I would respect her wishes. It was hard to resist. She has since fallen asleep and is cutting logs.
