The past two weeks has seen infequent but curious action from W.
Two weeks ago, after about two weeks of nothing from her she texts me:
"Just thinking of you and [dog] How are you?"
I didn't respond right away and so she tried calling later and didn't leave a message.
Next day I get morning phone call worried cause she tried to call and then sent text:
"I have tried to call u but no answer. Just thinking about you over the past couple of days and not heard back. Please let me know you're alright."
Followed by another voice mail of same content.
I just texted her I was fine sorry to worry her.
The next weekend texting exhange over footbal as it was one of favorite things to share on Saturdays
She writes "Just thinking about you, saw dolphins off the dock and thought of you and [dog] Are you home?"
We text during the game about plays etc. she says would be nice to watch game together I say yes I miss it too.
She says "I miss [dog]'s sweet face He probably doesn't remember me"
I assure her he will. It has been a awile but I am sure he will be excited when he sees you.
She says "let's talk tomorrow. I think it's a good idea. Is that good with you?"
I say yes and so by the end of the next day she has not phoned or anything but I got to thinking it may be pressure from the above conversation. So I send her a text
"I don't want you to feel pressure to talk to me if you don't thinks it's time. I know we both miss watching games together,it[my telling you that] was not meant to make you feel uncomfortable. I understand and it's ok if you don't want to talk right now. I hope you are ok."
WIFE "Yes.No worries. Glad you texted."
And that was the weekend before last. Nothing this past weekend from her so no communication. I am still not initiating anything.
I am getting better at just letting these seemingly hopeful attempts from her to reconnect and actually tell me what she is feeling and missing me and dog -just be what they are and not read into anything.
It seems she is still just poking her head out and making sure I am still there.
Happens every two weeks or so.
Oh and also realized I was removed from Sam's club membership she had through her parents...
In Florida that is almost a legally binding divorce....
No more big boxes of Wheaties for Truegritter!
My goal is to some day be the person my dog thinks I am
