2tp Before I would have said to not help her with the pool.

Why ?

Because you would have jumped at the opportunity. Over analyzed it. Used it to get into a relationship talk. Over analyzed it. Back peddled.

But the real reason why.

It was because you asked a question that was really just validation. Because you were not sure of what to do. Something that before you would have decided within a split second. And you would have not been looking for something in return.

2TP.

You just discovered something that you lost. And your self-esteem grew. You are not perusing. You are doing the right and decent thing. No epic conversations. No going all puppy eyes. You were asked for help. So you will give it.

I hope when you are there you get to work. Instruct. Lead with coaching while she does the work.

Then leave. If anything else comes up to fix. Arrange another day in the near future.

Baby steps my friend.
