So I was thinking about what WW was saying this weekend about me being distant, cold and what not. Yea she is right. I am still in my DB'ing mind set. I don't text her first, I never call, never say I miss you or anything like that and try not to start R talks. So yea, I can see where she is coming from. So today I decided to give her a surprise call. This is only the second time I have called her since August 2015... that's right August 2015!
She was surprised and happy. She was quite gabby. The trip issue sorted itself out. She saw someone post that they were going to Hawaii and asked me about it so it gave me a great opportunity to explain the situation. I think the surprise call softened the blow a bit. She just said it would be weird if we were back together at that time but she understood and that she really had no right to be upset about it. I just said let's see what happens. So that was good.
She also told me a story about her sister and how her long time on/off boyfriend are trying to get back together. They were never married but do have two kids together. Very similar stories actually minus the kids.
