Can I get her back??..

[LoveMyW]

I've really got to start realising that this journey is going to be a marathon, not a sprint to get my wife back..

Twice now I've felt the attitude from her getting warmer toward me, and twice I have said not so much stupid things, but have jumped the gun on what I SHOULD be doing..

Today, I was having a informal chat on the phone with her after talking to the kids which was a nice warm conversation, and she asked if I could spare some extra money for delivery of a new bunk for the kids room.. I obliged this request as it had to do with the kids, and I paid directly to the furniture place over the phone, so I knew it just wasn't there for play money..

Anyway, the chat was almost like old times, and when she asked me when I wanted the money back my reply was "We'll work something out".. I'm not too stressed on getting it back (not a big amount anyway) and it was for the kids.. Her reply to this was "No, not what you are thinking either".. Well silly old confident me (yeah the confidence of old is coming back in spurts!!) said "I wouldn't have to pay you as you will only come and have your way with me anyway"..

I won't say it put a dampener on the convo, and she got a good chuckle out of it, but I have to tone down the enthusiasm as it can be perceived as pushy (even though I'm not meaning it to be).. Aaah well, I'm still working on it all, and it does feel good for the confidence to be finally starting to come back after the gut kicking!!..

That's all for today..
