When I talked to a DB coach - Jodi - she suggested I should treat H like a friendly neighbor. That seems a bit more than dark, but maybe I can find a nice medium.

Does the going dark change if I think H is in a depressed MLC? Do I need to try to give him some positive responses - not R but just inquiry? Anyone find anything that works when the WAH seems so determined to be alone and unhappy? (Or am I just being weak and wishing to throw bones tonight after being so angry and frustrated today. Boy, I REALLY love rollercoasters!)
