Hi, LS ~ in my memory, DB doesn't have much information about piecing. I'll try to have a look in the next few days and see if there's anything.
I don't know what the definition is, really, and I still read posts on the MLC forum and occasionally the SSM forum and others, depending on what seems relevant and of course, there are certain people you connect with all over the place here. I don't think we're piecing, and I probably moved in a fit of unrealistic optimism when my H let his apartment go rather than moving in January. He has said that his emotions are all over the place and there certainly hasn't been any verbal commitment to improving our relationship, but his actions point to someone who is trying, at least going through the motions, but it's obviously such an effort - wonderful for one's ego, hey?
However, this morning he called to check with me about our schedule later in the day, as something has come up that he wants to do, so that's a little step - at least he remembered that I exist and might like to know that he'll be out this evening.
I was out last night (my book club) and so I'm a bit fuzzy this morning from too much wine and not enough sleep. Regardless, I'd best get to work - someone get a whip out!
