Fish, Piecing is hard. I thought it would be a cake walk after our separation. It seems the WAS waivers back and forth....and I have also found myself waivering. It is hard to trust again. I think we wait for the next bomb to drop because we don't fully trust them yet. We want to be ready if it happens again.
From what I have learned piecing takes time and patience. I think it is harder for me now because I am not as detached as I was when we were headed for D.
It sounds like for you things are heading in the right direction but your W wants to take it slow. Don't rush it for her. Don't smother her. Don't quit doing things for yourself....continue to GAL. Let the relationship talks come on her timeline. She probalby still feels guilty about things which is why she doesn't want to talk about it right now.
The trip sounds wonderful and should really give you two some time to connect. Just keep in mind that piecing takes time.
