I am feeling a bit down, so I need to acknowledge where I am right now.
Since I started DB'ing, what have my short term goals been (in chronological way)?
That:
- My W talks to me in an non aggressive way - check.
- My W smiles at me in a warm way - check
- My W comes with me and the kids in family trips - check
- My W and I share some moments together, like watching a TV series or meditating together - check
- My W touches me in non-sexual way outside the bed - check
- My W and I sleep on the same bed - check
- My W and I have small talk in the bed - check
- My W touches me in non-sexual way in the bed - check


Non achieved goals:
That:
- My W calls me on the phone to talk about anything other than the kids when I have to stay way for work.

Unexpected achievements:
My W has called me twice by my affectionate nickname.

The biggest surprise has been the fact that for the last week my W does not retract when turning in bed. Before she would immediatly move her foot, knee or arm away, which made me feel like having a contageous desease. Now she just keeps the foot or knee there, slightly touching me. I never though that a knee could turn on a man so powerfully!

She seems to be in a nice place.
Might it be that she has everything she wishes: all the space and distance she wants, in a month the divorce and at the same time a loving father for her kids? Is this all she wants from me?
