Dinner plans changed a bit but for the better. She got off work early, so she called me and said that she was just going to come straight home. That way we could eat closer to the side of town where we both stay right now. I said "awesome. will work on new venue. call you on the way home from work."
After making another set of reservations at a local sushi joint, I called her to tell her I would pick her up at 5:30 for our reservations (figuring confident, leader, upbeat). She said that she was already at our house. I did smile.
Picked her and my S up after we played a bit at home. Had a great, casual, stress free, R free, banter all meal. Sometimes laughter. Helping each other out with our S and never a negative comment the whole time.
Just got back to the house to drop her at her car. S is staying with her tonight and tomorrow, so I am headed out tonight to see go see a band downtown. I was surprised that she did not ask if I was going out, but I can understand why she didn't.
I love these dinner "dates?". It gives me and maybe her a glimpse every week of how things could be. Since I can only control my action, I will take these nights as a positive.
By the way, any answers to my questions from my post above? Would love the feedback.
