Soon after lunch, I sent W a text letting her know I enjoyed lunch and appreciated the conversation. Her reply surprised me.
she basically said she understands where I was coming from when I was unhappy. Acknowledges we weren't communicating, says she loves me and maybe we'll be able to "rekindle the passion". Ended with an i love you and promises we'll talk again.
This is the first time I've ever felt calm about us. in a looooong time.
Good luck with it. It sounds like a positive day from what you've described. Just remember to keep it at a reasonable pace and work to make things last.
