Making progress

  • click to rate

    So I feel like I'm making a bit of headway with my partner lately.

     

    It all started with the fact that one of our local stores is closing down and everything is going cheaply, so I just up and told her that I may go have a look and see if I could find anything nice for Mel (which I did). Once our son was asleep I even showed her what I bought, which she said she really appreciated as in the past I have bought things and then squirreled them away in my cupboards. We had a bit of a talk and it seems that she would just rather I tell her if I buy anything for Mel than keep it to myself (maybe because she might want to borrow it some day haha)

    Secondly, I may have a chance to get out as Mel in public in November, as there is a charity "Walk a mile in her shoes" thing going on soon to raise money for domestic abuse sufferers, which is a cause I feel rather strongly about, as does my partner. So I'll be doing that, and if I can work up the courage I may just go all the way, either way I know my shoes will fit nicely.

    until next time then

  • Deleted Member Well done, such a good cause as well. Strange how some partners/wives take it different ways. I told my wife a year ago, she went nuts as expected, hates it, still does & thinks I can stop just like that. Never going to happen. So well done &...  more
  • Deborah Taylor Even if it all ends horribly, which it sometimes does, honesty really is the best policy, because you are no longer living a lie.
