Tori, W sitting and being sucked into the iPad and her phone while in the same room. Not talking really unless I start a conversation. Then she reciprocates. Not trying to mindread. She denies anything wrong, "just sick". Our house has been sharing a cold lately, so maybe I'm thinking too much. I'm keeping most of my neurotic thoughts to myself and focusing ob other things. Can't say anything really that is drawing her in the past few days.
Glad my thoughts are part of a stage, normal at least.
You flatter me so much with your compliments. Want her cell # so you can tell her? Lol.
Spartan, Thank you for reading up on my sich...all 19 pages of this one. I agree that I have lots of good advice. I don't know where I'd be without it. Thank you for your words of encouragement too. Stop by as often as you'd like.
Update Busy day at work for me. W asks me to pick her up from her work party. Invites me to hang out, "since I know everyone.". So I run an errand or two and then go. It was weird b/c I sat with her and 2 of her close friends. Each know most of everything (minus my side of the sich). Anyways, 1 of them thanks for me for a condolence message I sent her months ago when her father passed away. She then went on to tell me how she's struggling to cope / admit it and deal with the pain. I listen and validate. . She and her H aren't doing so well either, "not enough space to work on stuff". I respond, "Dint give up". She asks if I have, and I chuckle. Not yet. . I also offer her books, or someone just to talk to if she ever wants. Other than that convo, I present myself as the fun loving, great guy and make several jokes that everyone laughs at. Score for me in front of the friends to show W and them I'm a great guy. Now to prove that to myself ....
