So... Ive read the 37 rules....Good stuff... Read a ton of posts..... Alot of people on here are going through some very difficult times.... I wish everyone well and hope everything turns out for them. Makes me feel like crap for posting my what now seems to be "trivial" situation. But I look at it this way. If everyone else didnt have the courage to post their issues and work through them, I wouldnt have realized where my relationship is/was heading... Thank you to all for sharing, youve given me a ton of insight.
Last weekend went pretty good. I havent even attempted the relationship talk. I kept upbeat and focused on my kids and myself. I interacted w/wife when she wanted but didnt "linger". My wife backed up into me yesterday during a blizzard while myu kids were playing soccer.... I wrapped my arms around her, she lightly grabed my hand that was tucked in. She took a picture of us together w/her phone, we reviewed it and my littlest one just smiled and said "you are the best mom and dad ever!" We look really happy in the pic.
Today, we went to Costco. I called to see if she still wanted to go.. She called while she was on her way, said her mom wanted her to pick her up. I wanted it to be just my wife and I so we could spend time w/no kids, no interruptions. I agreed to still go. She came in the office (rare) she watched me send my employees a note saying dont call until xxx time (I used to always respond whenever they needed). We went to lunch w/mother in law, cruised Costco together, droped me off and just a couple of min ago, she emailed me the picture from Sunday. My wife does not email.....
I think things are headed in the right direction.... Only time will tell I guess and I am going to keep at it.
