Found you in my own mind- Brad Pitt in Meet Joe Black (in the tuxedo!)
So my next question, given that it seems as though W has always wanted to be right, is how did you used to handle conflict compared to how you do it now? I hope it's OK to ask .....as I wonder if there are extreme 180s that could be tried (even if it means you seranading W outside her window- have you given that a go? I'd love it!) before moving to something more serious.
Things are OK on this side of the pond. I went to my friends' house for Sunday lunch today. No contact from H and I'm a bit worried that he'll think I don't care about him because I didn't reply to his text on Thurs or ask how his other interview went on Friday. Then again, he didn't send me a VD card- I could easily imagine he doesn't care about me much myself! (Minor hijack there- sorry!)

Oh, my.....you will be seriously disappointed if we ever meet! But, it will do for now!
I am a conflict avoider! I expect that in the past, I've swallowed stuff, and then done passive aggressive things to try to make a point. I really don't think I'm doing that any more, but it is her expectation, so it is hard to beat. I think we both could use some "lessons" in that! Hopefully she'll be interested. I really can't think of any extreme 180's I can do....though the seranading is an interesting one! I don't think she'd go for it though! I think the only way to figure out what he wants at this point is to ask her, which is more of less the plan. Maybe someone else could do differently, but it is the only idea I am left with, at this point.
If it helps, Lisa, I think you are doing the right thing! I think you've made it clear you care about him. Let him think on it a while!
