So, W never said she was "all in" and therefore the Pinhead test doesn't (yet) apply. All she said was that she wanted to me to move home so that we could "try" again. This is great, but all I'm counting on is that I now have a willing partner as opposed to an unwilling one. Still a long road to go and patience is still key, but at least we're moving and not stuck in the ditch.
I agreed to move home, but said we'd take is slow - for both of us. I told her I would stay in the guest room until she was ready and she said no, she wanted me in our bed.
I will keep doing my DB techniques, and my 180's.
Yesterday when she got home, she initiated a long lingering hug, which I gladly accepted, but did not start.
She's put her rings back on, so I did too, but only after she did. She stated saying "I love you" again and then I did too, but again her first. She kissed me good bye (twice) this morning - small kisses, but the first in nearly 2 months. They felt so good.
I might just play a little hard to get. That will be a challenge for me, but I KNOW that at least I won't initiate anything. That's her department for a while. And the 180's are going to be prime.
This [censored] works.
