We have not had more than two hours on our own since we moved in August. I know that the next few days are going to be crucial in deciding if we stay together or not.

I have been tidying up as I know he thinks I am bone idle around the house. Waiting nervously for him to get home.

Oh TSAP, email me if you need anything, shoulder to cry on etc.

I am hoping that time to sort things out means the time we need on our own to work out where we went wrong and to put it right.

psml kerry of you could see me you would die. I am in my cute but in now way sexy pink animal print pyjamas that have dribbles of pea and ham soup down them. I have also had some fanjo issues so there will be no sex. I also have a set of books to mark - he left with them in the car so couldn;t do it this afternoon.

Hey, tsap, good luck. Hope you manage to get some insight into yourself, into him, and your relationship. Be yourself, but fgs, get out of the soupstained PJ!!!
But, dont place too much emphasis on the next few days, ok? Just be.

Oh god. Maybe he is waiting for you to take the initiative? Take those pea-soupy PJs off, slam the books shut and take a small pair of black gloves from the under-the- under-sink cupboard - they're next to the bleach - those black slinky gloves you keep for a rainy day grumpy H.

Pull them on, sidle over...then slap him.
