WAW and I are still sleeping naked in the same bed and will most likely do so right up until the day she moves out. This morning she did not get up as soon as her alarm went off. I said "would you like some?" - which she knows means a spooning cuddle. She said "sure" and we cuddled for a few minutes.

At this point, with the separation a definite thing, is that wrong from dbing point of view? Again, please consider the whole black and white thing. I know it's letting her cake eat, but since we have not ruled out dating etc during separation, I think it's good in some ways to act "normal".

Obviously, I am fully aware that WAW may simply be playing nice leading up to the family vacation at XMAS, and that she may change completely afterward, but I am not going to have a possibility affect my actions now. We both expect real separation in January, but for how long, I don't know.

So..please chime in on the cuddle thing....and on this....what about sex before the separation? We briefly discussed how it would be nice for the memory of our last sex to not be the last time when we were stoned and it wasn't a great idea. Is it ok to have one final "no strings" encounter just in case it is our last time ever?
