Last week I had to do some traveling for work, and go to a trade convention down in Portland, OR. My wife got very down, more than normal (we don't actually like being apart over night). when I got her to talk about what's going on, she was worried I would go to strip clubs or find some "he/she" (her words), dress up and be happy with them and leave her. WOW.
I calmed most of her fears by checking in letting her know what i was doing; kept the web cam on in the hotel room so we could chat into the late hours. it's something she needed, and i needed her to be happy.
