Sometimes being here and reading everyone's posts is what helps to keep me sane. I think it's the reinforcing how others' spouses are acting insane too.
I understand the feeling needy at times RH. There are times I NEED to talk with a good friend about all this madness or feel the need to come here to read and post. The sitch with your H still amazes me. Does he plan on coming over to grill after a D? I think you know where you should tell him to stick his tongs if he does!
Gal, it IS frustrating to not be noticed by our H. After reading so much, I absolutely see the distancer/pursuer dynamic to our R. Even now, H doesn't like it if he thinks I'm mad at him. (unless it has to do with BFF/OW - then he doesn't seem to care). I remember a few months ago, I was giving him the cold shoulder. He proceeded to follow me around. He complimented me on the color of my nail polish! What?!?! There are times in general when I will "catch" him checking me out, but he won't say anything. Whatever.
As for your cruise, I say YOU take the opportunity to get yourself some new clothes. I have no doubt that your H will notice, whether he says anything or not! And besides, looking good makes us feel good. That is something I have discovered. Do I like compliments from my H? Sure. Do I need them? Not anymore.
Keep reading and posting ladies!
