Sounds like you are doing the right thing tho....a manicure and a pedicure!! How terrific.
I also think a girl has to listen to her intuition....somethings up....not because of the wine and the note...that is actually sweet and telling... He cares what you think of him. However your radar is up and I would listen to that....
Could it be he is feeling a bit wary because he is realizing how important to him you are( with his mum's passing) and this is making him a bit uncertain? Not aboout you but about himself......?? He's also been sharing himself more lately than in recent history and this has got to be making him a little gunshy too......
I say keep up your positive attitude...don't pry too much and have patience.......letting him know that sharing may make him vulnerable but you won't take advantage of that......
Don't be surprised if he pulls back even more....He is hyper sensitive right now to that fact that he shares so much with you.
Maybe his going through D9 to communicate is a way of putting a buffer between the two of you????
He gets a little more time to filter things.......
I know you'll make this a good weekend no matter what his mental state is...just a bit unnerving tho isn't it!
