Left for work had a dental appointment. Received a message asking if it went ok. Cheerfully reponded that it did. Then got a couple more just seeing how I was doing. Always cheerfully responded. Around lunch time she wrote to me to apologize for not sending lunch. I told her not to worry since I still had the previous days lunch in the fridge. We joked around on text a little bit more. She asked when I was coming home and asked if we could go out to run errands together. I said sure.
I was a little bit apprehensive during the drive back. Things were a little awkward, but we got into the swing of things right away. We kept joking and playing around, she made me a wonderful dinner, then we went out to explore our new surroundings. While at a store she suggested we get some condoms. (because the change in medications, and all the stuff going on with her system we thought it be a better idea to protect against pregnancy).
It was nice to know she reopened that window. One thing I did notice was that she wasn't wearing her wedding band. Was a little disappointed, but what can I say Im happy she still wants to stay. It's nice that things aren't awkward or downright down, and that we continue to have that wonderful chemistry that bonds us closer and closer. Yes I know there is symbolism involved, but I'm glad she's still here, and not "here, but emotionally checked out".
Don't know yet if she'll sleep on the couch or not, but I did notice that she moved the bedsheets I covered her with back into the bedroom. Gives me hope she'll come back, but I don't know that yet. If she doesn't not going to make a big deal or acknowledge it. I need to let her come back on her own.
I also made a point to myself to not hint at ml even after having bought stuff for it. I appreciate the gesture, but I guess for the time being she needs to initiate. It's night here, I hope she decides to come back to our bed.
