W came home tonight very obviously agitated, sniffing like she'd been crying, and texted me from the driveway "I'm home. Gonna have a cigarette. Up to you if you want to join me." (We quite smoking a few years ago.) Despite this, I went out and smoked with her. I asked if she had a good time. She said "yes". That was it. The rest of the time was spent shivering in silence. It's really cold here right now. Feels like October & rainy too.
Anyway, we went back in and sat on the couch. I was watching Storage Wars. We didn't say a word to each other. After about 5 minutes, I decided I wasn't going to fall into the "what's wrong?" Or "do you want to talk?" trap, so I simply said "I'm gonna go get ready for bed". She followed me up without speaking. I got ready, said "goodnight", (she responded "goodnight") and i came downstairs.
I don't really understand why she called it off with OM. If it's that painful for her, and she'd rather be with him, why does she care if I talk to an attorney on Tuesday? At this point, nothing in my mind has changed. She needs to initiate the conversation.
