Yep. When she decides to use more than monosyllabic replies, I'll put my newfound skills to use. Right now she's a master of DB. As little conversation as possible, just mad as hell.

Give her space then. Play with your girls, make them laugh. She won't stay mad long, it's just a feeling. Let her pursue you, she will when you do the right things.

Retain faith that you will prevail in the end, regardless of the difficulties and at the same time confront the most brutal facts of your current reality, whatever they might be.

Yep. Giving her a lot of space. Monday I worked out after the family dinner, then watched Mad Men after cleaning up. Yesterday I went for a good run before dinner, had the family dinner, then watched Notorious. Tonight it's off to the gym again, with some writing when I get done. Thursday it's dance lessons. Busy, busy.

And the girls make it a lot easier. Always someone to play with, tease, have fun, read books to, practice my DB skills on. wink

W is a pro DBer though, I'll give her that. I'm curious how long she'll last before simmering down.

Stop watching and waiting. She is watching you and as long as you are watching her then her back is turned.

What d'ya mean?

Too sense: Yes give space (enough for a million angels to dance), listen & validate (till Kingdom come). And no don't serve cake (e.g.: fake boobs). Mind reading? Not sure it's always a good thing. Wisdom for now: Doing and saying the best possible despite what everyone else says: very difficult.

Oh, I told her that we could just put the plastic surgery on our credit cards. What's another $5K?

Just kidding... wink

I've said those exact words to her. She always dismisses the idea as too expensive/impractical.



You missed the "hint" yet again...

My wife says this to me all the time about things she wants for herself. She is so used to giving to the kids and others first, that she feels guilty wanting something for herself...



What she secretly WANTS to hear from you is...

"Hey Honey. You work for our money too. You DESERVE to splurge on yourself once in awhile. You don't say anything to me when I waste money golfing or buying golf clubs. I think you should really do it if you want to. Don't worry about the money because it is only money and you deserve to treat yourself sometimes after giving to me and the kids all the time. I think you would look great."


THAT is how you do it.
