Lord Grenville is back in port...

I have been spending less time in front of the computer and more time in GAL.

For an update, W has been looking at a lot of different apartments this week, while she has been staying at her brother's house, and she looked at one today that she sounds very interested in.

I met her for dinner in the city this evening, and tried to be upbeat and friendly.

The article "While Your Spouse Decides" by Michelle, featuring advice by "David", feels like it is good advice for my sitch. He truly believes that he won his wife back by being a close friend to her throughout their separation and during her affair. I have not been calling her when we are apart, but she has called me a few times. She spent Tuesday night at home, and might spend this Saturday night with me, but the apartment separation seems very imminent.

So I have been reading Choc's thread about "The Godawful Cheek Thing", and I am realizing I am confused about how much affection I should try to share or show my W right now. We still hug and I can still manage to get a 1-second "hello" or "goodbye" kiss, but since she chose to stop ML with me several weeks ago, I have been trying to not to appear needy or clingy, but of course I would love to linger on her lips, and find a way to spark something from the past.

David's experiences in the article, suggests that his wife appreciated him not pressuring her into dates or sex during their separation. I just am not clear on how much I should aim for the beautiful lips of my W when we are in close proximity, and whether I should let my hands occasionally grace her curves?

Any advice will be helpful right now...
