When I sent her an email yesterday, asking if she was okay, she wrote back and said "Yeah, why??"
I wrote back and said "Because I care, Silly Rabbit." (Silly Rabbit? Who is this strange new person speaking?)
She responded with half a dozen lines telling me about her day, so then I took another small forward...
Me: Is it out of line or disrespectful to tell you how I am feeling right now? Maybe I don't know. But I'm gonna tell you anyway.
Beckie: Sure. Go for it.
I then wrote the most loving, passionate, erotic, seductive, words that I could think of, even though she had said last week she didn't want to hear and kind of sexual talk right now.
Was a bit of a risk. But I got a "Wow" sent back to me in response.
Small victories.
I am being the possibility of:
1) Integrity 2) Loving myself completely. 3) Things flowing naturally between us, without any fear or attachment to the outcome.
