Well, after a VERY confusing day of texting as little as I could while still being polite, I got to see her tonight. She was in a fair amount of pain for most of the day, and I offered to bring her dinner. Around dinner time, she said she would like to go out for dinner, and I asked could I take her. She said yes, and would I like to watch a movie afterwards. Of course I said yes. Dinner was ok, though she spent the whole ride home on her phone. It was about a 20 minute drive without conversation. We put in a movie at her house (Friday, for those who may be curious) and she cuddled up to me on the couch. I was pretty surprised by this. She fell asleep nearly immediately. About halfway through the movie she woke up and wanted to go to bed. I thanked her for a good night, and she thanked me (sincerely) for dinner. Here's where it gets interesting. After a very unexpected kiss, she said "I hope this means I get to see more of you." She has a list of movies that her coworkers gave her as "homework" and said I should help her watch them before the end of the year. That's a couple of movies a week. The night ended with her implying that she wanted this to continue. She was very open, and I felt her letting me in a little. Maybe I over reacted or over analyzed the last few weeks. Maybe not. I don't know, but I know that a tiny chip was made in the walls tonight, though I couldn't tell you how or why. Gonna keep things nice and slow and see where it goes. My T is supportive of this, so it can't be all bad.
