Gabriel,

Stuff that warmed me to him after separation?

1. Text messages to ask how I am and what I'm doing.

2. Text messages to tell me what he's doing. One message he wrote was 'I'm at a market getting presents for the kids and it's freezing.' - that's all he put, I thought that was sweet so I invited him for a coffee to warm him up.

3. Chatting to me for 2 hours etc, let me know he liked my company.

4. Looking after the kids whilst I went to see the doctor and when I got home, the lights and heating were on and he had fed all the kids and was cooking my dinner. I was SO impressed.

5. He rang up this cell phone company I was having problems with and yelled at them on my behalf and 2 days later the company sent me a new phone.

6. He remembered our wedding anniversary even though we were about to be divorced.

7. He expressed worry when I told him I was going to Cyprus, and he asked how I would manage at the airport. This might offend some people but I thought it was caring.
He phoned me while I was on a train and asked if he could come over for Christmas of course, I said yes.

That's when the sex happened and then it was basically 'erm, Andy, why did we just do that?'

Probably doesn't help you at all as I am the LBS, but they are the things that impressed me.

Jo.
