Well I did make the dinner res. Thing is I am a take charge kind of guy. That could be part of the problem. I usually end up planning things. I would really like to see her initiate some dates, etc. Maybe that's not going to happen for now or maybe I have to really ask her to do this. I will see what she comes up with for next Saturday, the anniv. and just keep mine in place in case she plans nothing...

Here's a question, isn't it hard to act like things are going well? I seem to be able to do this for a while, a week or so, but then see other couples who are outwardly very happy and this makes me very depressed about my situation. I tend to start moping and my W notices this and doesn't want me to be like this. But it is very hard to be happy about a situation that isn't. How do you all deal with this. I already focus on my kids and the many good things in my life, but what I really need is a wife who wants, needs and loves me...
