Just got back from taking the kids home, my wife has had her hair cut in a different style and it looks fantastic. In the past whenever she had had her cut it was always a shock to me and took me a while to come round to it and loved it after that initial 'shock'. Tonight, (fortunetly the kids had told me about it before we went round) I said it looked fantastic and it made her look thinner so I did well there, it didn't get a reaction from her but I know it was the right thing to say. I was sincere because it did look fantastic and I really do like it so 1 good 180.
Now the 2x4 bit, she asked me to look after the kids on Friday as she has been asked out by her work friend, who is male (I'm 99.99% sure this is just a friend and they will meet up with other people when they're out). In the past I've been very jealous and very questioning. The trouble is with our marriage situation at the moment and the whole Nick situation my trust in her is very very low. I managed to not react as much as I had done in the past and it wasn't so obvious I was troubled. But I think she would of got some impression I wasn't completely happy. I know I can't control her and I know it's upto her but I just can't get over my fears that she might meet someone or do something silly (shes not the sort but the fear is still there). Interestingly she had been asked out because it was said that she really needed a night out, so maybe shes not enjoying being on her own as much as she thought!
