Very true. Here's an interesting thing today. I came home around 5 from my office and she....
Comes and stands behind me, and puts her arm around me for a minute.
Tells me she's feeling sad and really needs some love. So we go in her room and close the door (can't let the kids see) and lie on her bed while I hold her. She cries for a minute but mostly just wants to be comforted.
Later she tells me she's had 'too much time to think' today and is upset because she doesn't trust herself when it comes to picking relationships and she doesn't know WHEN she will ever try another one. (Ouch, that hurt since she's talking about OM). She wouldn't talk any more about it.
ok, later at about 8:30 she actually comes up behind me and puts her arms around my waist and comments on how thinner I have gotten while holding on to me.
An hour later when D10 is put to bed we sit on the couch, she lies on my side and I hold her while we watch TV (it's ok, unlikely the kids will catch us) very comfy cozy partly because I have a nice fire in the fireplace too.
11:30 the last show ends and it's time for bed. While I'm waiting for her to get herself together I'm watching the fire. She comes up behind me and throws her arms around mmy neck, holding me tight for a few minutes with her head on my shoulder.
Then it's "Good Nite Frank" and she scoots into her room. I go to my room, where I am typing this.
So, what the hell does this all mean??? The girl is nuts. I think she wants me to dominate the interactions. So I kissed her 3 times when the opportunity presented itself. She didn;t resist and kissed back.
