Here we go again...

It’s been another interesting 24 hours.

Yesterday during a casual email exchange she said, “I’m fond of you.”

Last night I walked in the door and picked up S. I asked him, “Do you have a hug for me?” W responded, “yes” with a smile. She was speaking for herself, not for S. (She didn’t give a hug)

Last night she referred to us as “estranged husband and wife.” For some reason this really hurts.

She told her mom we are looking into ways for her to stay home with S instead of working. Her mom is very supportive.

On the drive to work this morning we talked more about the finances and logistics of her staying home. She said that she could meet me at the door in an apron with a whiskey. 1950’s style. I had to laugh at the thought… but it sure would be nice!

She said that “when we were talking about her getting apartment, how would that have worked?” She was referring to the financial aspect. The key to this comment was the PAST tense of the comment… she hasn’t mentioned moving out in a week.

She made a comment that if things go well with her staying home we could possibly think about having another kid. This is something I used to push for. Obviously this isn’t something I’m interested in any time soon given our sitch….

The radio morning show was talking about swingers. She laughed and jokingly said maybe we should get a “guest star.” This seemed odd since we haven’t had relations in weeks. I guess she’s not repulsed by the idea if she’s making this type of comment.

She’s also interviewing for a job next week… she seems to be grabbing for ANYTHING that can get her out of the job she hates.

Her comments at this point have all been based on quitting work. She has yet to discuss our relationship any further. She did sleep in the same bed again last night. She still doesn’t wear her ring and seems to avoid any physical contact. I’m still giving her space and am avoiding initiating any contact or bringing up R talk.
