Dude - I have to hand it to you guys, I'm feeling GREAT.
Why?
Remember how tonight when I got off the phone quickly with W after I talked to S4?
She sends me two texts, goes like this. I pause 5-10 minutes between them all:
W: You ok? W: Hey, you there? You ok? M: Yes Ma'am. (humor here) W: Ewww don't call me ma'am M: What would you prefer?
PHONE RINGS. She calls me...
M: Hello W: Hey, are you busy right now? M: A little - just getting some things done, what's up? W: Oh. Well. I just wanted to call you and say thank you for taking care of me yesterday. That was really nice of you. M: No problem. W: I just wanted to call and say thanks, really. M: It was the right thing to do. W: I am feeling much better today, blah blah blah M: Any luck passing the stones? W: No not really, blah blah blah ... pause .... M: Ok, anything else? W: Not really, just wanted to say thanks. M: OK, have a good night. W: ...okay. Goodnight
I ENDED THE CONVERSATION. 2 MINUTES TOPS!!!
30 seconds later....
she sends me texts trying to be funny with movie quotes? I respond with "hahaha" or the like. Not engaging really.
Guys, for the first time in 3 months I've just been pursued by my wife. Why? Went NC with W with this 2 week goal until Retrouvaille.
This is awesome.
Admittedly though, I was a little sad that I couldn't talk to her tonight, but I got SO MUCH MORE out of her pursuing me.
SUCCESS #1.
Even though I'm terrible at detaching, probably the worst in DB history, a misconception I had before was that by detaching and going NC I thought (ok, a little mind reading here) she would think I was with OW. Or, she could think I'm just GAL and moving on. Either way, she doesn't want either and has pursued me for the first time in months.
Again, SUCCESS #1
Anyone want to wager she tries again tonight?
If this happens tomorrow I'm just not responding - probably what I should have done tonight. I know I know, I'm a little slow to the game.
