Ours in in the city itself, so 20 min or so on the freeway.
Dress...yesterday she came home with the most awful shirt. My son asked, "why are you wearing a prison shirt!" My daughters weren't too impressed either.
So then she threw two bills and said the cost of what she bought despite me having told her I didn't care about the cost of the things - she's a penny pincher when it comes to herself. After the prison shirt comment (and a few minutes of private laughing), I told her that she should buy what looks nice, not what is cheap.
Today, she went out and got the dress and a small bit of jewlery. She NEVER dresses up, so I have to say it was probably the first complement I could genuinely make in the last 4 years about how she looked. She said she needed something nice for the weekend...
I'm trying to focus on the non-physical relationship this weekend, but it took one brick off one wall - excellent way to pump up the adrenaline for Friday~
We then had a bit of a fight an hour later...):, but it was easier to deal with coming from a high. ____
That being said, with a possible EA with your wife, keep your heart strong. She may do or say things that hurt, but I have a great feeling that you will be able to stay true to your goal of a happy marriage with her. Keep the goal in mind.
Like you said about swimming, you went nuts, but in the end you found some a new love later on.
There is a religious belief I have been taught - when you leave something bad for the sake of following the example of God and His prophets, a substitute is promised for you later on. Doesn't mean it will happen this weekend, though~
