My heart has thawed out, totally. Just a big squishy bag of throbbing emotions again.
I am wooing my wife all over again. It is fun, like when I first met her, and tried to win her heart. I am being a gentleman to her, giving her nothing but positive words and kindness. I gave her a really deep, intimate anniversary card today. It is our 13th anniversary this week. Even if it doesn't work, and she walks away forever,
it is really exciting to pursue her with passion....much more fun than our recent, mundane marriage of arguing and no appreciation for each other.
I think this conflict and separation was like a much needed defibrillation of our relationship. It was dying, and the only thing that could save it was a violent shock!
