I hadn't realized I locked my last thread.. so thank you Kalni!
I'm on to #3. Below I will quote my final update from my previous thread just to get this one going.
I'll check in on all of you once H leaves the house tonight.

Hi Ali,
Thank you for the enthusiasm. I think I look pretty good today. The exchange happened.. and it was brief. He bought me a vanilla latte and the carmel lava cake (which I had told him a couple of weeks ago I was meaning to try). He pulled out front of my office building.. I opened the door and leaned in to get everything.. we exchange quick pleasantries.. said I'd see him later (since he'll be coming over to see D2) and then he leaned over so I leaned in further and we did the quick peck on the lips. Overall a pleasant moment! A moment I'm grateful for but not going to expect to happen repeatedly!
Don't let every little thing he does or says get to you. This is the long haul. It's going to be filled with peaks and valleys. Focus on trends and not the individual occurances.
Well H left about 20 minutes ago I think.. And since D2 was in bed by 8:45 he hung out for an extra 45 minutes with me. I guess that's a good thing. He didn't mention anything about lunch tomorrow and neither did I. He likely forgot or something came up.. funny thing is that I'm not even disappointed. Interesting.
While his car was warming up (so cold up here in Canada.. I think it's -7 or so now) he was asking if I would mind driving him to his mouth/jaw surgery next month and picking him up afterward.. since he'll be under anestesia (sp?). So I told him that I would.
I truly feel that we are in stage 2.. the friendship stage.. but at this point I'm not sure if we'll ever move out of it.. I know it's early days yet and I am becoming a more patient person throughout this experience.. but my intuition is kind of telling me that this is as far as we'll get. I don't know, I guess we'll see.
Well there are a few other threads I want to check out before hitting the sheets.. I hope you all have a wonderful evening and sweet dreams!
I've been reading the book Living in the Light. It focuses a lot on inner spirituality. Last night before going to sleep I did as the book suggested.. I relaxed, took some deep breathes and asked my inner spirit/my higher power/God a question (the book says that you should speak to this energy and ask questions you are looking for answers to) so I did ask ONE question.. Can you guess what it was? I'll bet you all thought I asked about my R or M or my H, am I right? I even surprised myself. My one question was for me. I asked for direction or guidance in helping me choose my future career... it was completely natural. I didn't even think of H. And for some reason I feel really good about this so I wanted to post it on my thread.
congratulations, W2G, you should feel good about yourself! Your question shows that you are FREE and independent and strong.
I just realized that W2G also stands for Way To Go
