Hi Lou

Yes I understand the thing about getting comfort out of a partner's clothes. I do a similar thing with a gold chain that used to be Andy's. I no longer wear it but I do meditate with it in my hand and sometimes sleep with it under my pillow.

There is a theory that jewellery retains body energy from the owner so I thought if I kept it and did that, it would entice a positive response from him.

I've also got some boxer shorts that were his that I sometimes wear if my pelvic problem is playing up as men's underwear is more loose fitting so it helps I haven't told him I wear them, though, because he might think that was a bit weird.

Also when I was pregnant I sometimes wore his shirts because they fit round my belly I had to roll the sleeves up loads though because they were way too long.

The shower scene to him is not a 'scene', it's reality. Last time he came round I did just step out of the shower and on previous times we have ML in the shower etc and once during that 4 and a half months we were seeing each other, I followed him outside in the garden in the nude (it was night time and no one else was outside) and kissed him goodbye, so I know that he's probably remenising about that, or something similar

I don't think it's boyish, Lou, it's quite romantic.

Just not appropriate for my circumstances at the moment.

Jo.
