I thought I'd better put this in writing lest I forget.
Last night I'd been chatting to Jenny on FB and said that although I love Wilson, he doesn't seem to love me. I was thinking of giving the whole thing up as a bad job and simply not having a horse.
Well, he must have been eavesdropping because today he was exceptionally affectionate (for him). I heard him say that he does love me, and he proved it by being fabulous to ride and trying very hard to do MT. I often laugh when I ride him, because it's so much fun!
And the funniest part was when I was bringing him his Top Spec; I was around the corner so he couldn't see me but knew what I was doing, and I asked him "So how much did you say you love me, then?" - and he actually whinnied in reply, just before I came into his line of vision. Obviously he loves me even more when I'm carrying a bucket, lol!
Maybe, if Joe has now gone, he'll be able to get a bit closer to me?

ReplyDeleteYou've gone through some real soul searching and your dreams prove that your subconscious is just as comitted to this as your conscious self.
I actually don't need to say anything though, because I think you've got there on your own. But seeing as I've signed up especially.... maybe Wilson was nuzzling at the door while you were watching Joe through the window? Loving them both is not mutually exclusive, but perhaps your time-management of love needed a little guidance?
I think you are getting there.
And maybe yes it is time to change the profile pic - to a collage with pics of them both in? That way you don't need to choose or feel guilty or sad...
Wilson is a real star I loved riding him! I wish I'd met Joe he sounds a great character - you are the luckiest girl ever to have found not one but two fab horses in your lifetime (so far!)Some people never seem to find one they click with. In my (very limited) experience I think relationships with horses take a long time to really develop. I've had Minnie 2 years now and I think we're only just getting connected she's a very independent and quite 'cool' mare not given to many displays of affection to horses or people. But my little heart was warmed when i went into her field after 2 weeks away. She looked up saw me looked surprised and -dare i say it- pleased and walked over towards me all the way down the field (this behavior is normally unheard of!) so there you go!
