On one of the nights we were away, our kids were playing a game on my laptop, so I asked her if she wanted to go downstairs to the restaurant for something to drink. She agreed, and we had a good time just chatting and laughing about the day.
I know that I needed to make a lot of changes. But I didn't expect to see the good changes in her. She seems more comfortable or peaceful with herself. She seems more laid back. Since she was so easygoing seeming, I had the chance to kind of step up a few times on our trip.
I know that it is one step at a time and I am not going to push her. But I am trying to make sort of natural ways for her to be able to see the way I have worked on myself. I have no clue how to address the sex part. That was the really big thing that just made her feel really hurt and rejected.
