Afternoon naps are normal where we live due to the climate, also his working hours are the evening, so he goes to bed late.
I got a hold of DB and started reading up through chapter 2 so far. I like that it focuses on practical tips and change and moving forward. It's my kind of thing as I am not into Freudian psychobabble.
I avoid discussing the other wife unless he brings her up. Sometimes he seems to be uncomfortable if I mention her, even in a positive way. Facing reality I guess is why he doesn't like it.
We did have a good conversation just now, he told me about what work has been going on for her accommodations and some decorating and construction stuff that would affect both of us. I was kind of surprised he brought it up himself because whenever I would ask before he didn't want to answer me and got annoyed.
But then I sent him a positive affirming text message this morning. I try to keep the encouraging things in writing so he doesn't feel the obligation to respond and can read them and just let them sink in, and then leave our talks to non-relationship stuff. Seems to have worked the last few days.
