Hi JRB,

Is it possible that what you are doing is working because the D train is further along?



Yeah, I think it's a combination of the D train moving along, plus the way I've handled it. After my initial bitterness, I've got back to where I'm happy just to be with her, regardless of our marital status. I think that makes her more comfortable that she doesn't have to worry that I hate her for pursuing the D.

My update for the day. Another pretty good day. She called last night at about 2 am. I didn't hear it since I was completely zonked. I called this morning and she told me her sister asked her to go out to listen to this band last night. Turns out her sister got arrested for DUI and her sisters boyfriend got arrested for an outstanding warrant, leaving her alone with the cops. So she called to see if I'd come get her. I was sleeping though. Later she told me about some guy hitting on her at the bar. He sounded desperate. She made a fairly big point of indicating she had no interest. She said "I wish you were there to tell him to get lost"

She came over and made a cake and hung out. She does have a fair amount of comfort around me...she showed me the area I had done minor surgery on while I was in the tub and didn't seem too concerned to be around me in that state. We still hugged and such. At one point she said come here...and led me in the bedroom to dance with me.

The rest of the day up to this point we were at the mother's day party. Although I said I wouldn't attempt to hold her or anything so that her family wouldn't get the wrong impression I find I couldn't help myself. It went fine though. I'm glad I went. Her family is really cool and fun to be around.

That does it for updates. I'm happy. (see the grin).

Have a good week everyone. Hope things are well.
