Baby steps in the right direction (thread 3)

[MichelleLT]

Sounds like you had a fun evening. Always nice to get out with friends. You said it yourself, you were happier before he came to live there because you were out more and having more fun and working out and feeling good. So, time to get back to that and let him sort out his life.

He needs some space still. He doesn't feel like he has anything to give you yet - he has been too financially and emotionally dependent on you since he moved.

I think once he gets past that, if you two can break the old habits, you might see some progress.
