I saw something on tv last night and it reminded me of all the things I have learned about you since we have been married:

You can't eat salsa without dripping some on your shirt

When you walk, and your tired, you drag your right heel every forth step

You always put your earrings on right to left

Doors left open drive you nuts

When you get enough rest, your blue eyes are like the ocean on a spring morning

You have 3 laughs, a real one, a half one when embarressed, and a fake one just to shut someone up

You pefer sweatpants to jeans anyday

You love sweetarts and have a weakness for any candy

You took a risk getting married to me, and I'm sorry I let you down ......

Awwwwww Still, have you told her these things? If not, you should. That's the sweetest thing I've ever heard.

God Bless,

Tell her ?? She is still to much in the FOG to listen to anything I have to say.

She is still very angry and won;t listen or even look to see if I am changing.

I still try to show her though.

I hope one day she will look and see.

I really love her and want to make this work.

That's so sweet. Don't know your story but I just read your post above and it brought tears to my eyes. Tell her anyway. Tell her, or write it down and leave it for her one morning when she least expects it. I'd give anything if my H would do the same for me. Well, he has....he just didn't mean it.

You should ABSOLUTELY write that down and leave it for her.

That's the thing with Fog....you're really not sure what's getting in and what's not. She may not acknowledge that this got to her.......but it will.

This is GREAT Plan A stuff here <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

God Bless,

Very very sweet. My H is also very good with words. I dont always tell him thank you when he leaves a sweet note but hes breaking though my fog slowly but surely. Keep it up she will appreciate it even if neither one of you knows it right away.

She will say the same thing to me, "You don't mean it". I think she is more about actions now then about words. She is at least talking to me a little. Not about us, but about other things. Plan A seems to be going good.

I have tried and tried to tell her ...

I have alot things I know if you want to hear them.

She prefers carnations to roses anyday.

She always has to put her feet up on something, even in the car.

If she could, she would go everywhere bare-feet.

The back of her neck is one of her most sensitive places.

A good kiss for her is hard to beat

When her hair is wet, I can't resist touching it

That hardly a day goes by when she doesn't turn a man's head when she is in public

Whan she is feeling good, she can be the kindest, sweetest, most touching person I have ever met

You can tell the mood she is in by the look on her face

That she is one of the smartest people I know

That her voice alone creates a unbelievable feeling in me, still




I loved her the day I met her, and I promised to be true. If only I got one more shot... I would show her how much she has opened my eyes, cleared my head, and strengthed my heart.

I truly am a changed man .......

I just hope its not too late .....

I am in IC. I blew up at her one night and threw her out. The WRONG thing to do, I know.

I go faithfully every week now. I have to. It clears my head and keeps me grounded.

She won't attend any MC. She doesn't think it will help and she sees no hope for us at all.

Ironaclly, she still has alot of personal stuff in the house and she hasn't been playing any games since a few days after she left.

I am going to stick to Plan A for a while and see how it works. I know this will take time. I just can;t stand not knowing and not having her here sometimes.

I thought I could do without her. I thought the days would be better and the nights brighter.

I WAS WRONG !!!

I miss her so .... Even after all these months ....

Just a small reach from her and I would show her....

WE ARE WORTH IT !!!
