I’ve decided to move over to piecing since most of the people I’ve been reading and watching are in piecing themselves. My original thread is below. Mostly been lurking but am always looking for suggestions and help.
Since my last post, Sandi advised me to start some pursuing. W told me she once before that she appreciated the little notes I left her, so I started leaving them again. First one I left two weeks ago was thanking her for her help around the house and that I appreciated that. Got a text thanking me for the “Nice” note.
Last week, left on a trip to the Frozen Four with our two sons. She was home alone for the weekend and was planning on going to a concert with her sister and a couple of friends and also running in a 5K with her brother and niece. Left a note telling her to have a good time at the concert and wishing her good luck and how much I admired her for her drive to get in shape for the 5K. Told her to have a fun weekend and that she was looking great, and sexy. No response to this note
Did think about W and our M many times while I was gone. I expected to come home and find her contacting OM again. She had been texting him on Easter Sunday. Nothing with OM over the weekend, except a couple of texts between the two of them after I got home on Sunday. She did some spring cleaning around the house – I told her it looked very nice and thanked her for doing some of the yard work.
I’ve been asking her to some “dates” over the past couple of weeks – movie, dinner. Rebuffed each time; she had other plans (with some of her friends) or was too tired, or “I have to run to get ready for the race”.
I’m seeing some positive signs, but still get the gut feeling she’s not happy with me or our M. Sandi cautioned that she may be getting comfortable with the current arrangement – cake eating. I’m looking for ways to move forward, even if it’s a little bit at a time.
Any thoughts on approaching her to go to Retrouvaille? Any other suggestions?
