I returned home from a long night of work. W was sleeping. W woke up as I walked in the room. W told me how she had a terrible night sleep and her head is STILL hurting. I went to bed and W went downstairs. A few min later W comes back up lays in bed, has a little snack and looks over to me and ask if I would like any, I told her "NO, but thank you."
Finding it hard to fall to sleep W and I began to talk a little bit. W told me about research she had done over night on hotels ect.. for the trip she had been planning for the fall. Now that I know that the trip includes me I am starting to get excited. In the past I never really got involved with our trip planning and just left it up to her. Now I am expressing excitement and participating in the planning process. The trip is a being planned for the same week we went on our honey moon last year at the same destination...honeymoon part two? (the right way)
I eventually feel to sleep as did my W. Our dog was being a pain so I had a hard time getting consistent sleep. W eventually woke up after an hour or so and turned the TV on (lol) I gave up on trying to sleep and got up myself.
W and I again carried on convo about the trip and other non-R topics. W and I took a trip to the bookstore. W wanted to get a guide for our vacation. I made my way over to the R/M books and told W that I wanted to purchase a book that was recommended by a co-worker and read it together. W said "get it" but did not say if she would participate in reading it.
W wanted to stop a store to get some new under garments. W and I picked out a few things and then headed on back home.
During our time out and about, I did not engage in any R talk. There were few times where I did place hand on W's leg while driving, place hand on small of her back while standing in store and hold her hand while walking. W did not reject any.
At home, I prepared for a night of work and W was getting situated with organizing things around the house that we just purchased.
The day W had said she wanted to work on our M or give it another try she agreed to read M help/improving books but has yet to do/participate in any of it. W said that today we could go through the first chapter of a book but it did not happen. I mentioned this to W briefly and she really did not give a response...
There were a few times where W seemed to had got 'short' with me but she said it was due to her headache and the heat and nothing was meant by it. We carried on civilly. I was leaving for work and as I had in the past (before our sitch) would kiss W on forehead before I left and say goodnight. W said goodnight to me. Something that she had not reciprocated in several months. As I walked out the bedroom W said "Be careful." Something I have not heard her say to me before I left for work in 8 months or so now.
I know I may have gone a little overboard with the kiss on the forehead but I remember not too long ago W being on the internet and she was saving "love quotes." In one of the quotes it was said that someone who truly loves you would kiss you on the forehead...something I use to ALWAYS do before our sicth as well, so I did it and she was not objective toward it.
Going back to my previous post... Mandatory DO's and DON'Ts?
