A familiar story with questions NINE

[RR17]

Steve, I know what you are saying about most women. But not all.

I assure you that my W is no masters at reading body language. Over the years, I have picked up on nuances with the kids, others, that she misses. She admits this. Somehow she missed out on the skill of reading social queues.
Now, I do believe that she is looking for signs of my suspicion surrounding this trip. This is IMO a symptom of her personal shame. Not so much my actions. She is more sensitive to my expressions because I told her before she went that I struggled with the idea. You don't get to be trusted without doing the work to restore trust. Doesn't this seem possible?

Baby, I've had the poker face. I've only spoken to her twice and I was intentional in my expression. Perhaps the poker face was suspicious. Still, I refuse to take responsibility for her shame.

It is really easy to judge one's level of detachment in these threads when the poster is honest. I admit my mistakes. I dought many here do. I do it to document mistakes and hopefully not repeat them. Besides I have nothing to hide. I could shape the narrative to make readers believe whatever I want them to. You already admitted I know the stuff. I simply don't see the point.

Besides, I'm kind of done changing. I will wait her out until I get completely fed up and then I will go.

Steve no one ever drops the rope completely unless they give up and stop trying.
