I fell in love with my wife again over dinner last week. We were in a Mexican restaurant having a conversation, and the feeling just washed over me, just completely beyond my control. This happens every now and again, and at the oddest times.
I fell in love with her once when she was snoring and woke me up. I listened for a couple of minutes before nudging her to turn over so I could get some sleep.
Other times it happens, like when she puts her face in mine and plants a kiss on my lips to get me to shut up.
Or when I borrow her car and there is a Linda Ronstadt CD in the player. It reminds me of when we were going together and it was her favorite music that she constantly listened to and it totally annoyed me. (I did think Linda Ronstadt was hot. But my babe was hotter!)
Sometimes it’s when she’s still sleeping and I see her face from an angle I don’t ever recall seeing it before, and she still looks kind of like a teenager.
When she walks past me while I’m reading and rubs the back of my neck for a few seconds. Or when she lets me see her naked in the bathtub, even though she is very shy about her body.
Weird stuff like that.
I wonder if there is some kind of medication I can take to help control these irrational thoughts.
Why would you want to control those thoughts anyway?
