So, here I am a few days later. I have returned to my "home away from home" after being with my family for a little less than a week. I am seeing now every day a little more what I need to do, and why it is so important to keep a relationship alive. My wife is acting in a play where she is at, and tonight is her opening night. I had thought beforehand to send her flowers tonight, which I did, to congratulate her on the performance. The only problem is, not knowing this, (not that I wanted her to know) she mentioned that she would like to get some while I was there. Luckily, she called and was pleased at the gift. I am happy that it worked out, but this shows the situation I am in. This is not the first time that I have had to be told that my wife wants something, but it does show how little I have been listening.
I am not writing this to be sappy by any means, but I have realized that if my wife is truly the most important person in my life, should I not be more than willing to do these things for her? She does them for me all the time. For instance, I don't know if I mentioned it before but when I arrived to see my family, my wife had arranged a hotel room for her and I for the first night I was there. This is quite typical for her. She is a very giving, outgoing person. That's one of the many things I love about her.
Moving on, I am now focusing on doing SOMETHING for our anniversary which is this month. How I am going to pull it off, I am not sure, but we will see. I hope that there aren't many women out there that have this problem with their husbands, but I do know that it is an easy trap to fall into. Like I said, I didn't even realize that it had happened until it was too late. Now I am trying to get back on track, or on track whatever the case may be.
