You know what your problem is? You haven't been chatting with me... cause you'd slap me upside the head if I asked the question you just asked... you'd say "stop with the stinkin thinkin" You'd say, all those nice words and you picked out a few to overanalyze and get ticked about? And have you forgotten the words "baby steps"? Cause I think there are a few here.
From your helicopter pilot: 1. He wrote you back. 2. He thanked you for your patience... in other words NOTICED how long you have been dealing with his weirdness. 3. He said he cared deeply for you. 4. He is thinking about your day (s). 5. He is appreciative of the work you do around the house (exactly how many men EVER say that???)
Quote: I can't really say how I feel about it all
Maybe he JUST meant "I don't really care which anniversary we celebrate cause to me we are married, and being a guy, I'm not good on dates anyway... and, you know, if we celebrate our anniversary in April, we'd have to explain all that stuff to everyone, and you know, KK, I'm totally not into talking to all the relatives and stuff... so whatever you want to do about the anniversary is great with me" but he did the guy thing and pared it down to a few clumsily chosen words that you chose to hyperanalyze into meaning "I don't know how I feel about you, our M, or anything else that has you or our M in it, around it or remotely related to it..." which, of course is not what he said at all, please refer back to the list of baby steps quoted by your helicopter pilot.
Sheesh, you are making my head spin as fast as the rotor (helicopter lingo... you like?)
I think those 7 kids are wearing you out, and I'm wondering if your brain is working down there on their level. That's what you get for staying away from the bb so long where people NEED you!
Anyway, the way Bob Barker would look at it would be "I have two awesome anniversaries to celebrate, and I'm going to celebrate them and send H wonderful, funny cards telling him how awesome he is, how wonderful life is at home and how much I need and appreciate him to provide some calmness and peace in Kitti's life..." or, how about a card talking about why you couldn't wait to get married, and does H remember how nuts you were about each other. With all of that sunshine out there, KK, put some positive thoughts in your day, okay??? You love the guy, show him, be excited about him, make him think you are missing him like crazy, make him long for you... The power is in YOU.
Well, this is your helicopter pilot signing off, over and out.
PS... sorry for the whacking... you know I love you.
Relax. Appreciate. Be calm. Laugh. Enjoy. Be secure. Be loving. Be loved. Don't personalize. Don't ASSume. Accept. Be grateful.
