thanks! I've done pretty good at not pressing. I think you're right about it being subconcious. We had a great conversation about something fun she is doing and she was really excited to tell me about it. I was good and didn't link it to things we have done in the past.
I was careful in the exchanges also not to mirror the we and us too much. I could actually feel myself wanting to and then seeing how by my pushing it she would have felt pressured.
As I have done in the past I almost slipped with the ILY, but caught myself at I Lll... I have done that before and put her off. This time we ended the conversation as pleasant as it started. I always want to say ILY just so she knows, but as you have told me before - she already knows that!
Is this the best course to keep on with this small bit of peeking? I suppose if I am smart (and patient)I will see a sign if and when she wants to peek out a little bit more.
