What got us hooked on each other? - Geez, we were young. 18 years old! We spent ALL of our free time together. We used to go to theme parks whenever we could, catch a movie here and there, and sometimes we'd go hang around Pier 39 in San Francisco. We used to really enjoy each other's company. I still enjoy being around H. In one R talk, H told me that he feels like we're not friends anymore. We used to be able to just talk about anything. Actually, H did most of the talking and I did most of the listening. I don't know what happened. In another R talk, I told him that my biggest complaint was not spending time together like we used to. I reminded him of the things we used to do, so he said let's do it then. He has mentioned a couple times in this past month about "us" going to a theme park this summer. I'm looking forward to it, I'd like to take the kids, but I'm thinking this may have to be something we do alone only because kids weren't in the picture in the beginning. So like I said, I'm looking forward to this and I hope it happens, but I won't expect for it to.
Why did he do that? - Yes, I guess it WAS because of the pressure coming from me. NO MORE PRESSURE.
I'm trying to think of things we could do together in the meantime, but I'm having trouble. Going to the movies - I would love to go see a movie! We haven't done this in at least 1 1/2 years. He just has no interest in it anymore. Going out of town (i.e. Pier 39, the beach, etc) - I'm the type who loves to go places and just hang out, enjoy the scenery, but I think H only did these things for me, so now I'm thinking I have to do some things for him. H has always wanted to take me snowboarding or even boogie-boarding. Not exactly my thing, but it looks like I'm going to try it for him.
Have to go. H is calling me. Thanks for listening.
