/Journaling

Made it through 3 classes of talking about matrimony / marriage today.

Held up pretty well, tbh. I did talk about annulments and divorce (differences between the two), as well as separation—and got questions about what Catholics believe about separated spouses. Told I would look up the questions about separation to verify (found it in the book), and while answering question made the comment about how I’m not an expert on this topic (all the while internally saying to myself ‘And I hope I never will have to be.’

Glad I didn’t get questions about how W and I met, which is a relief.

Did get a text from a friend / groomsman about anniversary—but no texts from W, which is now standard except when she really wants something.

I sometimes wonder if she is ‘letting go of the rope,’ too—her doing more around the house, her looking a little bit nicer, and I thought I smelled body spray on her yesterday when she took OS to a friend’s birthday party. I wonder if she is doing detachment, as well. She’s also doing like I do and saying ‘sure’ and telling me what she is doing ‘I’m taking a shower,’ in a manner similar to what I’ve been doing.

Did not say anything about anniversary last night, and didn’t do it this morning (left before she woke up—still no kiss / ILY for her—only for kids).

But I’ll be going home soon.
