Intimacy 2

LHS told me something the other day.

He had broken up with the love of his life about 6 months ago. She called to say a few things.

With one eyebrow raised, I listened. I heard his bruised ego and his last bit of love for her.

After I made my nice and supportive comments, I asked him what was the purpose of telling me what happened.

He said that he wants me to know what is on his mind.

I asked if that changed anything.

He said it did not.

I paused, waiting. So did he.

With a soft sigh, I asked him what did he want to do now.

His smiling voice caressed my cheek, as he told me.

We will see.

I prefer for us to “do”, however.
