What a rotten birthday you had.




It wasn't all bad. I had a pleasant dinner at Outback with the family, followed by a round of miniature golf and presents. I wasn't really expecting to get laid, either.

Quote:

That your W tore up the letter is really inexcusable.



Fortunately, she didn't tear it up. I retrieved it from the trash intact and unstained. I'll hold onto it, but it's going to be awhile before I write her anything else.
Quote:

I could also say that I am unilaterally attempting to repair the marriage, but in fact my W is responding positively to my attempts without acknowledging those attempts. This is what usually happens. Look for clues in your W's behavior.



So far I haven't seen much change in her attitude, but I'm going to keep things on the front burner. Tonight I'm going to ask her to tell me ONE thing that she hates about me, and I'm going to take it like a man.

Thanks for the input,

Tony
