Just a quick comment on doing things like 180's and GAL from DBing. These are very good suggestions and I think they have specific applications in the case of the SSM. Moving out of the BR probably seemed like a 180 from where you were. OTOH - your R was so devoid of touch and proximity that it was actually more of the same. I agree about hugging W if you feel it - DON'T ASK. Don't talk about "date nights" as such but drag W out at every possible opportunity for walks or to choose items for your house/yard - whatever spells "together". Touch her at every opportunity - the kind she doesn't have time to talk about - a quick touch of her shoulder to ask a question, brush her hair from her eyes, smack her on the *ss as she passes. See how these things play out. Plan on her acting weird about it.
I would also do some of the DB stuff about "acting mysterious" and GAL - find some things to nurture yourself, specifically ask her to stay home and take care of things a night or two during the week while you go somewhere that you don't tell her all the details about - maybe a networking meeting for jobseekers?
