WAW...now the LBS Part 2

[HOPEFULinCALI]

I just don't know how to get him to want to move forward, I feel like we are totally stuck in this rut and can't get out...it sucks! any suggestions???

That is the million dollar question. I even posted a thread in newcomers about the four stages and how to move from friendship to romance hoping to get some insight particularly from those who have done it including peicers, moderators, DBers. I still haven't found the answer and even my DB coach said that it doesn't just happen.

I will have to reread your own posts, but do I understand that you are not spending any time together? He hadn't extended invites lately? Have you?

In my own sitch I didn't start to see a consistent effort on my H's side until after seeing Michele I explained that I only wanted to be friends and not holding onto hope.

If you haven't invited him anywhere and vice versa you could try. Invite him to activities that are fun, social, and that he would have an interest in doing. If he doesn't go do it anyway and tell him how great it was. Even coffee. Say something like hey I'm in the area (I don't know how close you live) want to grab some coffee or tea.

I wish I had more answers, but maybe we can figure it out together.

Hugs.
