You are both correct and I appreciate the 2x4. My IC actually seems to flirt a bit. I will not lie about her being an attractive educated woman. I have no interest in her at all but I believe she might like me. Again, those are only my feelings so I may be reading her wrong.


Harrier, thanks for that. She has been showing that she cares more in other ways. Things she HAS done:

*Now turns on my side of the electric blanket (something she stopped doing)

*Texts me pics of the things she does in work

*Saved ONLY ME a piece of cake

*Makes dinner for me every night

*She again started to iron MY laundry (she had stopped)

*Brings my wine or beer

*Friendly every morning and night

*Great conversations

*No longer stays on the edge of the bed (we meet in the middle)

*Does not reject the physical contact

*Talks of our future


I guess I need to stop assuming what's in HER head and just be happy to be where I am. My wife is home, she is not cold or angry and she still takes care of me. And she MUST care about me. Slow and steady. Keep saying it...

Believe it or not, I vent here but am a rock at home. I've come so far from the crying and depression I first felt...

She asked me so many times for space at first and I just couldn't give it to her. After reading DB/DR and I gave her the space she DID change dramatically! It does work but there is nothing harder in the world!

Not being loved by the one you love kills. But worse is NEVER being loved by the one you love. Especially if you can get it back through hard work.

you guys have again helped me through a difficult day!

Thank you!
