Day 14 - Love Dare - Love Takes Delight

Dare:
Purposely neglect an activity I would normally do to spend time with David. Do something he wants to do. Just be together.

Well, as circumstances happen, we will be together today for a drive to give my grandson his birthday gift. It'll be an hour either way and then we'll probably go to a friend's house later. These are things we both want to do. But maybe in between, I won't play on the computer and I won't vegge in front of the TV. When he goes to bed, I'll go with him. I do enjoy being with David but I need to let him feel that.

Results:
I DID IT! I talked to David about fighting and I survived. We talked very civilly and talked about why I don't fight (my fear of confrontation). I even told David that I'm afraid of him. So, yea, task accomplished.

As far as yesterday's dare, as soon as I finished blogging I immediately went back to the bedroom and was just there with David. Normally I would have just sat at the computer and played games, not a very productive activity. David even asked what I was doing and I told him I wanted to be with him. It felt good. We were together absolutely all day.
