Looking for inspiration

[mdu]

Ok, so I must confess went off advice again. Please don't think that I don't value everyone's input, I totally do!!! But I am trying to think through whether it makes sense for my sitch, knowing my H. And actually, I don't think he has ever minded that I'm the planner. As a matter of fact, I think especially when we first started dating he rather liked that I was into so many things and would organize various activities for us. I've gotten him into a lot of things. When I really think about it, I think what he has minded is when I plan then I used to byotch about being the planner. The 180 is for ME to just make a plan and if he goes along be happy about it instead of complaining. Seriously, I think about it and it was so dumb of me to complain, I like planning, I like to do what I want to do. If he goes along with the program, all the better. As long as he takes the lead once in a while, I'm good. And whenever I have said to him, you know I just don't feel like deciding could you, he would. Gah, I used to byotch about such DUMB things. But I'm smarter now.

Anyways, so I ended up offering up a couple of ideas for something to do this week. And what we're going to do I think is quite brilliant on my part, if I do say so myself. I think we are going hang out and play chess! Now why is this so brilliant you might ask? WTH is so great about playing chess together?? Well, H and I actually met and initially began falling for each other while playing cards. Yes, cards! We were both part of a lunch time card playing group at work. So playing a game like chess together is actually quite romantic for us. Not to mention it seems sorta fitting at the moment ;-)

So, that's the latest. Need to do some clothes shopping. I'll certainly report back after our next big date and change course ASAP if my approach does not work! Thanks again to everyone for your support and feedback.
