Had a pretty good visit with IC today. I filled her in on the details of why W felt so starved of affection. Basically started from the beginning when we met, up to now. Spent the rest of the time discussing communicating.
Problem is, I've been pondering how to move beyond the daily texts, Skype and FB messages, and the friendly but platonic movie and TV watching and dinners out. But of course I am letting her lead. There's been no R talk at all - and no D talk since the initial paperwork a few weeks back - wihich was right before the "need you as a friend message.". My IC is really big on verbalizing everything. She thinks I need to tell W that I want to keep moving forward but that I'm happy to let her set the pace (I'm paraphrasing - I think she said it better).
I've been trying more subtle FB posts, like Mr. Bond suggested. She doesn't always "like" or comment my FB stuff, but she has a few times recently. I posted a line that I liked, from a book, about green eyes, that I know she'll understand to be about her, if she noticed it.
Tricky point - our anniversary is in 2 wks. How to acknowledge, without pressuring? Be romantic, but not overdo it? It's on a Monday, too, which isn't the best day for going out. I'm thinking of sending her flowers, and inviting her to a nice restaraunt in an old inn that she's shown an interest in but we've always put off actually going to.
