Ok, well, what are the chances that I would have a breakthrough the very night I get the book OT has talked about so much...good I guess.
NO, not THAT breakthrough, but a step closer. W asked me to get something for her out of my car just now. I hugged her and as I did, I pulled her shirt up a bit so her stomach was exposed against mine (damn, now I sound like a romance novel). She weakly protested but then I said "Hey, you want me to do something for you..." She smiled and relaxed into me. Then, out of the blue, she says "I miss you." I said "I miss you too. You feel amazing right now." She said "So do you." and kissed my chest. I reached down and lifted her head up and kissed her. She didn't resist. It wasn't long or passionate by any stretch but it WAS a real kiss. She then walked away and we talked a bit more, most of it her telling me how she appreciated all that I am doing for her and my patience. I hugged her again, kissed her again and she said, again, out of the blue that she's been feeling much better over the past couple days and that she thinks she's finally dealing with "this stuff". She asked me to give her time but that she was starting to feel "right" again with me.
The real thing here is that she said she missed me in an unmistakably "sexual" way. Once again, she told me she was not quite ready to take the plunge but I think she is close.
Anyway, I will keep reading PM as fast as I can and hope for the best.
