Hey Hanni!!!
Ya know, this posts hits hard because i am the girl that comes home to the man who does not acknowledge her... who takes all she does for him for granted.. who could care less about her feelings...
So i think i would rather be in your shoes and come home to an empty house rather than to an empty heart....
Supergirl, your post breaks my heart.
I was out at business meetings most of the day. It was a long day... and I knew I was going to be spending tonight home alone. Both my daughter and my girlfriend had plans for tonight. (My girlfriend is going to a "girls night out" with her girlfriends... and my daughter is staying the night with one of her friends.)
I knew coming home that I would only have about 5 minutes to say "hi" to them when I got in before they would both be racing out the door to go the their friends.
What did I come home to?
They both greeted me at the door. My daughter grabbed my brief case and folders so that I could stand in the doorway and give my girlfriend a long hug.
In the oven was a roast they had made... waiting to be turned on... lots of mushroom and sauce. My fav. My girlfriend turned it on and said it would be ready in an hour. (About when I would want it.)
Veggies were in the micro wave... waiting in the steamer... a note telling me to hit #4 setting 5 minutes before I take the roast out of the oven.
A bottle of Merlot was open and breathing... one glass poured and waiting for me.
On the TV was the video tape they picked out for me at the video store... and a good selection it was. (Action western. The type of flick they hate but they know I would love.)
They were both out the door and on their way within three minutes of my getting home - but they had waited that extra little bit so that they were HERE when I got home.
I got a hug and kiss from both. They both told me they loved me.
And then they were off.
I'm not really sure how to say this... but even when I come home to a night alone... I come home to a home where I know I'm loved.
It's what you deserve too.
