Thank Angela. I still find myself having those moments of anxiety... what if he doesn't end up seeing the light?
But I know right now I have to be strong for both of us and for our son, so that's what I am trying to do.
So far today I am feeling pretty good. There was a bit of flirting!
He came home earlier for lunch than he has been lately, I was surprised. He asked what I was making for lunch. I said I didn't know yet and asked if he wanted to eat with me. He asks, "Eat with you how?" I clarified, "I just meant I'd make us both something, but if you wanted to eat lunch and watch tv together I'd be up for that." He said he had some thing to do before he could eat. I said that's fine, I was going to go get my run in quick.
I went to get changed into my running gear and he came into the bedroom while I was in just my underwear and a tank top. I laughed and covered my rear, and told him to try and control himself. He said, "I'm trying, but leaning over like that you're liable to get pregnant." I laughed and reminded him I am still on my depo shot. He went on through to the bathroom and I finished getting dressed and left to run before he came back out.
After lunch he brought his dishes down. He mentioned that the meal we had often makes him feel sick, probably he salsa on the side has garlic. I verified, that yes it probably does and that I wish he had mentioned that to me sooner and I would have made a change or at least not made that lunch so often. He said, well now you know.
He asked if I planned to have a coffee this afternoon. I said I hadn't planned on it, but I could maybe go for one. He asked if I would mind making him a coffee, I told him I'd make him coffee for a hug. He said that seemed a cheap price to pay. He was wearing his fuzzy robe and it was so cuddly. He leaned a little oddly at one point and I asked what he was doing, "stretching my back a little he said and touching your side fat." I laughed and told him he better touch it while it's still there, that I have lost 25 pounds already. He said I was looking really good, that he had to be conscious to give me a "friend hug" so he wouldn't get a boner. We both laughed over that. I asked if he has that problem with all the girls. He said, "no, only with you." I said he will have to tell me when I start to look too skinny. He said I shouldn't worry about it, I have always had a great ass even when I was thinner. *blushing a little here* I said thanks.
He switched gears then to tell me about his work stuff... he made some minor code changes that greatly improved their product efficiency. I validated that it sounded like a good accomplishment, and I was not surprised. He is very good at what he does and that I was glad he had the opportunity now to make some of those changes, because I know that his previous supervisor was not very receptive to changes like this and always questioned him.
He said yeah, it felt nice not to have his hands tied at work for once. I waited to see if he was going to say more on the subject, but he seemed to feel satisfied. He thanked me for making the coffee and excused himself to go back upstairs to work.
Glowing a little. I know right now it still doesn't really mean anything, but it is nice to just ENJOY time together.
