Don't underestimate how big a step ML again is. I always took my H's desire for me for granted. I thought I could do or say anything and he would still be hard on contact. Not so. When he was involved with the OW I had to work really hard to get him to do it. And he kept telling me to stop trying, it wouldn't work. But I'm not a quitter. I felt like a snake charmer with a flute. And this went on for several days before he showed interest again. If he responds to you, that is very good news.
