Yeah I feel a lot better about where things are at. I knew trust was tied into communication but I guess I didn't really think that she wouldn't tell me what she was up to because she didn't trust me. It makes sense though; you confide in those you trust most and right now my wife is respecting the fact that I'm her husband but not really opening up to me like I'm her husband. Of course, she talks to me a lot more than she did three months ago so it's a platform to work from.

She did wind up texting me when she got where she was going and when she left to come back (I didn't ask for the return text). The texts were as short as humanly possible but at least I knew she was safe and she respected that it was a safety thing. She got home after we had all eaten dinner but she enjoyed the rissoles I made. Sorry, no kangaroo last night.
