Well I went up again Wed night to spend the night with W in her hotel to keep her company. We had a good time at dinner and just relaxing at night.
In the morning we somehow got on the discussion on ML, and W said she still has things to work through, and there was a reason she stayed away from home. I said I understood. She said thats why she is still going to individual C.
A while after the conversation, I said I needed a hug (the comments before just got me thinking and brought me right back to the past when she was gone). She snuggled up to me since we were in bed ans gave me a hug. She asked if she said something that upset me (in MC we talked about sharing more when we need support from each other). I told her that the comment about there was a reason she left just got me thinking about the past, I wasn't upset just needed a hug. She hugged me tighter and told me she loved me, and I said ILY2. I said I just want us to be together, and she said she wants that too. It was really positive to have her reassure me like that.
I helped her load up from the hotel, and we went our seperate ways. She said she didn't know when she would be home last night. I asked if she would call me so I would know if I could expect her for dinner.
She actually called me at six and said that she was going out with a friend and to have dinner on my own. I asked when she thought she would be home, and she said around 9.
She actually called me, which is a big positive, and she actually came home when she said, again a big positive. We has nice conversation and watched a TV show we liked together. I did tell her I really appreciated that she called me and came home before I went to bed.
Really good positive steps, and by her calling me I didn't worry about her and it wasn't on my mind all night. Its this one little thing that helps me be OK with her being out alone.
We do have plans for dinner with a friend tonight and to do shopping. And we have tickets for a concert tomorrow night. So it should be a good weekend.
God Bless You,
