Friday night S was sick. I tried to connect with W with conversation about current events. (a 180) She played on her phone and barely responded. Said she needed to unwind after a long day with S being sick. She seemed distant.
Saturday She felt distant in the morning. She gave me a hug in the afternoon. She sat on my lap to discuss dinner options. I asked if she still wanted to go on a “dress up” date night sometime. She said, “Yes! I think it’d be fun!” Saturday night she went out with friends. She was wearing ring for first time In days, and was wearing them out! She gave a hug, kiss, and said “I love you” before leaving. The next day she laughed and said her ring was like a force-field… it kept the guys away.
Sunday We met with her family for a Christmas gathering. I was sitting on the couch; she was sitting on the floor near me. She made an effort to hold onto my leg. Her parents were discussing ideas of gifts for me. W commented again about how we’d like a gift certificate to a local casino for a mini overnight vacation.
Last night I GAL. I went to the range with my sister’s boyfriend and grabbed a drink afterwards. It was a great time! My aim is slowly getting better. He invited me to shoot competitively with him this summer. I think I may take him up on the offer. I need a new hobby!
Before I left for the range W looked at me sadly and said, “How come you don’t invite me?” I told her I didn’t know she was interested. She said she’d like to try it. I don’t think she likes when I leave and do things without her… She often makes me feel guilty for going out… despite the fact that she tells me I need to connect with other people.
When I got home W was in bed. She slid over to she was touching me. S woke in the night. I got up to help with him (180). She made contact when I returned to the bed.
This morning W wanted a kiss as I left for work.
