I've thought about a response similar to what you mentioned. For me, the strong eye contact will have to become an area of focus.
Like I said, she wants S / D, I will give her what she wants--the boot from MBR ("okay since you're serious...")
I didn't shoot her down about having R talk--she asked me WHEN I would like to have it. So ball is in my court--haven't chosen a date yet
I will do my best not to reason or turn into a blubbering mess. Done begging and pleading.
TF, you're right about the late night convos. I've NEVER liked that when W does--some time ago I told her I don't like it because, in so many words, I feel manipulated or taken advantage of to agree with her or just get so worn down.
Worst case is just that--worst case, and rather unlikely.
This week W will take OS to dentist in Santa Monica. She may leave YS with me while she overnights with OS at MIL.
She talked about how it's better that her first night away from him would be when he is with me for one night and it's local instead of her being gone across country this fall for 3 months (and I'll have both boys).
She will be gone for 3 months this fall for a training. Also, with govt shutdown continuing, guess who is the only one drawing a paycheck right now? THIS GUY
May be why she was so nice to me yesterday? She noticed something, or trying to butter me up?
