Hi cat,

I'm not sure what her LL is - probably quality time followed by physical contact. She is focused solely on work right now (graduate degree) and has been unwilling to sacrifice time away from that for working on R.

Odd night last night. I had planned a dinner with friends last week, before she had moved back in. So friends came over and W asked her aunt, who she had been living with, to join us.

Dinner was great - lots of good conversation. The aunt cornered me in the kitchen at one point, though, and expressed her support. After everyone left, W asked me what aunt had said. I didn't tell her, just said aunt had asked if W was going to stay with me or not (most of W's stuff is still at aunt's). W started crying, asking herself why couldn't she choose and saying she's a fool. I just held her again. We finally went to bed.

This morning, I got up early and ran all the household errands - think W appreciated that. She said she was going in to work, but left her clothes at the house - I guess she's staying. Before she left I asked if she'd like to have dinner together and she agreed.

So odd, this dance. She's telling me where she'll be, staying at the house, we talk about everything, but she won't actually say she wants to reconcile. I'm doing great, though, and will continue treating her like a good friend while I pursue my own life.
