A tale of Mrs FY and Mlc Hyde:
Last night my wife and I were connecting a little more than usual. So, after my shower, I came out by her and massaged her head and brushed her hair for a few minutes. I don't do this very often, maybe once every week or two. I don't want to make her uncomfortable or have her feel I'm clinging on her. Besides any accidental touch, this is the only physical contact we have. As usual, she seemed to enjoy it, closed her eyes and made a couple quiet cooing sounds. Any advice regarding this?
Several minutes afterwards, she starts getting upset when our dog is pestering her while she's typing away on her iPad. I was discussing the dogs needs with her, when she abruptly shouts "OH F-U!" Shocked, I calmly asked if she was saying that to me. (I will not accept being cursed at like that!) In a highly aggravated tone she says NO, I WAS TRYING TO SEND THIS EMAIL AND NOW I LOST IT BECAUSE OF THE DOG". I said ok, bowed out of the situation, took care of the dog and gave her space.
As always, she told me good night when she went to bed later.
This morning she tells me her and gf are going out for a drink after work tonight. Just a few minutes ago she called to tell me where they are, "because I didn't mention it this morning and wanted to let you know where I am". When she gets home I typically get to hear about her night out. Gosh I love my girl!
M: A really long time. Crisis: 5 years. She's still worth it.
