I was SO excited. Most days feel sort of lonely because there's very little physical intimacy anymore. Getting a text like this is very unusual at this point in the relationship and reminded me a lot of how our relationship used to be. I was thrilled.

I feel stupid even writing this. I got home before she did and began to get ready. I showered, shaved, did my hair the way she likes, dressed nicely, and put together a dinner that I know is a particular favorite of hers. Before she arrived, I did all the tasks that take her out of the mood when she notices them. Things like folding and putting away laundry, making the bed etc.

Finally she arrives home. She looks wonderful. I'm practically vibrating with excitement, but doing my best to not be THAT obvious.

I ask her about her day and she tells me how it went over dinner. She's appreciative of dinner. Then we go upstairs. In the past, this is when we normally would have had sex. Instead, she changes into something comfortable and then heads to her favorite spot on the couch.

I'm feeling a little let down at this point. I feel like any effort I went to has been completely overlooked. But that's okay! Maybe she just wants to do it later. I change my own clothes to match her vibe and join her.

And then that's it! Nothing happened. We eventually just went to bed. I triple checked my messages to make sure I hadn't entirely made up her message from earlier. Now I just feel so stupid. And it's even worse that she seems to have nothing to say about it. I absolutely would have understood if her day had gone poorly and she wasn't in the mood anymore. Or... Anything? "Sorry, I'm just not in the mood anymore." I feel tricked, or like it was a prank, even though I know it wasn't.
