MC, I also associates calling with caring. Personally, I do not see anything wrong with you calling her on a regular basis. That's what a close friend would do. As long as there is no pushing (e.g. "you were not there when I called." "Were you gone for 2 hours at lunch?"), just simple chit chat, I think she will like it. And end the call as soon as you see any sign of her getting annoyed/irritated/busy (and end it early sometimes on purpose). This way it won't feel it's pursuing and will leave her something to look forward to.

I think you are doing great. Incredible restraint in no R talk. I feel that CW not talking about future means she is still not sure. (At least for me, I would not talk ANYTHING future unless I am very sure. Even now in piecing, I don't talk about future, just day to day stuff. Unlike my h, who can talk future even back then when he was not sure about me or OW!!!). This is probably a good clue to look out for. When/if she talks about future, you will know she is coming back in a more sure sense.

Take care, you are doing great.
