Thought I would add some more since today is going so well. Its lifting my spirits and I hope I can share some of my joy.

My W and I went for breakfast, and she kissed me before we left. We had a nice meal and some good conversation. The hard thing for me was see got a call from a MF (she was with him A LOT yesterday) and she said we were having breakfast. He must have asked her over, because she said she would drop by afterward and hang out. I bit my tongue and let it slide, but my mind was wondering why she spends so much time with him on his day off, but not me. Oh well I figured I was with her now so make the best of it.

Then after we finished I was playing with my wedding ring (I do this a lot), and she commented about her ring on her wedding finger about getting resized for another finger for when she puts her wedding ring back on. Then a bit later she reached out and held both my hands in hers and said you are so cute and ILY so much, and I meant it when I said it last night. It made me feel so good. She said we are reconnecting and its going good. She said she does need her space sometimes for now. I told her I understood, and I need to be with her sometimes. I said we need to come together to make it work for both of us and she agreed. She also told me that personal touch for her right now needs to be on her terms. I told her I understood and told her that I would let her come to me, and had been doing so for sometime and she agreed. She did insinuate that it will change but for now thats how she felt. I thanked her for telling me and opening up to me. She keeps opening up more each day and we are talking very well together about us, and she usually brings it up as I try to stay away from R talks. I'm just letting her come to me with her feelings and I think its working to listen and validate. I feel she is becoming more comfortable in sharing which is so good.

We even talked about taking a cruise for a vacation, and on the way out she grabed a home shopper (we had been looking for a new home before the bomb).

We then went to get groceries together and she said she really like it when we go together. We continued our ritual and got a new CD that she picked out. In the checkout she wanted some cin. mints, so I got them and said she can kiss me with her after she had a mint.

We got home and she thanked me for everthing this morning, and we got stuff for breakfast tomorrow to eat in so she will be her tonight again.

The best part of today (so far) was when she asked me to move over on the couch, and sat down with me. She leaned up next to me to snuggle and she said ILY. She looked at me and kissed me more passionately than we have had since she left newyears. It was wonderful and a great moment we said we needed to do more of.

I am beaming from ear to ear. I didn't even get to ruffled with her leaving to see her MF (Thanks JJ for the advice in my other thread). And she said she wanted to play things by ear today. I told her I would be around here except for going to church and if she wanted to see me to call and I'd be up for whatever. She said she would call and keep me in the loop.

Things are going so well. I even overheard a conversation with her best friend in Detroit and she told her we were doing good and working things out. She told her she had a lot of hope for us. It made my day. I hope it even gets better each and every day.

God Bless You, Reuben Cautiously hopeful and keeping the Momentum
