Its been a pretty good last couple of days for me emotionally. The detaching seems to be a bit easier each day. At work I don"t think I thought about my wife for more than 10 minutes. Back in december when I found out about the EA, all I could think about was her and the OM.
I keep trying to do nice things for my wife. Got up early and went and got her a coffee from Starbuck's before she got up for work. After work I took my kids to their sporting events and let the wife stay home and relax. I enjoy doing this as it gives me a chance to connect with my kids and work on becoming a more patient and giving person.
The other day I was putting some stuff away in our house and I found the Book "The Love Dare" hidden away. I am not sure if my wife bought it or if someone gave it to her. It looks like it was never read. Anyways, I decided to start following it, although I have changed the time frame from 40 days to 40 weeks. I really can"t see my wife changing her position in only a 40 day period so I am giving myself more time!
Maybe its a sign, or fate that I came across the book. Anyways, I don't think it can hurt and I think it will help me to continue to become a better person.
