A little more progress.

Yesterday we went out for the day, did some nice couple stuff, lunch, walk about the city we were visiting etc.

Sitting in the car about to drive home we were waiting for some tradesmen to finish unloading a van in front of us, and I made a joke saying: “see, I know builders are you type and all, but if you suggested to me that those were the builders you wanted, I think I’d have to strongly object, but I guess you’re into what you’re into” (for context, they were hideously out of shape, and this was done very light heartedly)

To my surprise she responded with “would you just tell me to get on with it on my own time and then I could send you photos and tell you all about it later?”

Obviously this got me going straight away, she clarified that indeed those builders were gross, but we spoke about the solo play and updates and she knows I’d find that insanely hot.

Gently gently, keep her mind ticking over and thinking about it
