Just a few quick ancedotes after about a week of “detaching”. W has spontaneously hugged me out of the blue a few times and we’ve had pleasant (but short) conversations – no R talk and didn’t mention today’s MC appointment.
She has also asked me out to lunch (which I had brought up before as something that would be nice to do every week or 2, given we don’t have any “alone” time).
The most interesting one was, while we were hanging out at home last night (the whole family), she went into the bedroom and put on these high heels and walked around for a while with them on (I’ve commented in the past about these “sexy” shoes), almost “prancing” around to see if I would comment/notice. Of course, I noticed but didn’t let on – it was a little weird, actually.
She also wanted to go up to an event in another city this weekend but I have a work meeting the same night, so she suggested taking our boys up with her for the daytrip (which she would have never done in the past). I also had a GAL night out planned last night and she ended up changing her plans as a result (which normally should probably would not have done).
Guess I’m just journaling at this point, but nice to see a small glimmer of hope here with some of her efforts to move toward me (as opposed to being in her own little bubble of selfishness)…also feel like I have a much clearer head now, so thanks.
