I have a plan. Will stay for the whole game but exit at the very end when he goes in to shower. Maybe just give a little wave & then send a text 'good game!"

I am a hockey nut
AND
him not noticing you right away doesn't mean anything....he is probably into the game

make note of some specific moves on the ice

hang out for a bit and watch the game....not husband.

really...watch the game, not your phone, and try to imagine what the things are that he likes about it

then comment on those specific things later

(like...that icing call was bogus or why wasn't that high sticking called in the 2nd? Holding much? )

because hanging out and taking interest in hockey is really that...taking an interest

Is that typical for him? Maybe he was trying to show off because you were there...

It's kind of typical, although I thought he had mellowed some with age. He was definitely playing very hard. He didn't even look at me when he skated off the ice. I stayed to the end, just a few more minutes, then left & sent him a text

Interesting night. As I said, the whole game he did not even look my way, even when he was skating off the ice, although he was obviously very POed for getting kicked out. I left a few minutes later and just sent him a nice text. On my drive home he calls me, when I answer he's all like "Hey, why'd you leave?!" I just said, "Oh I needed to get home and get to bed". Then we chatted a bit about the game and the fight (basically this guy kept grabbing him and he got sick of it so decided to have at it).

So interesting because I left totally thinking that he was NOT into me being there at all but that wasn't true. I wasn't particularly sad about it per se, just thinking that maybe it was a bit much for him at the moment. But, in fact, that wasn't true. He thanked me for coming and said that he would have come right off the ice to see me instead of heading into the showers if he knew I needed to get going.

So I'd say operation ice hockey game was a success!!

Yes!!!

I was going to say that he TOTALLY knew you were there! There are few things more awesome than having someone you like watch you at your sport. It feels SO good and so many men DREAM about it. I commend you for that. It was hard for you, you did it anyway and you were feeling awkward about it but you stuck it out! MDU, don't look now but you're ROCKING IT!!!

I like that you left early actually, kind of adds some mystery, implies that you have other things to tend to besides him and he had to finish the game to find out what happened... You did this by the book, I'm so impressed!

congrats, mdu! I wish I could hug you!!! (((())))

Be strong enough to let go and wise enough to wait for what you deserve.
