Agreed, I have not set concrete boundaries; just did a 180 and GAL non-stop.

After the last post it has become more interesting/complex....

1. I attended the family events as mentioned, the first being Thursday afternoon. This was the first event that I was going to skip. It was appreciated.

2. The next evening I GAL'ed at a bar that has salsa lessons. Dancing has been my kryptonite, so this is the ultimate 180.

3. The next morning I had a GAL hobbie planned, and had to leave early. W woke me up and came into my room before the alarm went off and snuggled with me. Since I tied one on, I hit snooze for another hour and we both fell asleep in my bed. I woke up and left her there, had fun all day and was happy with my GAL, confused with the morning.

4. The next day was the BIG family event, but she wanted to drive separate. I agreed, and when I arrived she didn't have a seat saved next to her at the family table. I was unhappy, but considering the sit, I contacted a F friend and arranged dinner;excused myself from the event. We closed down the bars.

5. The next morning she has a UID removed. This is a surprise to me. I have always wanted a child, and WE have never really talked about it, but it was an underlying desire. She mentioned she woke up crying and the nightmare was "you hated me"

6. After the procedure she is feeling terrible. She asks me to sit and hug her / watch TV, so I oblige.. She then starts crying, holding back tears. I just ask whats wrong and she responds with everything... but doesn't get into detail. i think its the IUD and the sadness of giving up the dream together...


SO, When do I re-engage... because the sadness was felt by me too... I took a shower and went drinking that night. I really want to give here an ultimatum....
