How great to hear that your NZ trip went well. I am SOOOOOOOO jealous!
I'm really glad you're doing well, and interested to hear that MIL thinks H isn't coping well. Perfect DBing, by the way- that'll get back to him for sure, and hopefully get him interested.
I'm glad you've set yourself a limit on moving on. 4 months sound good, and a year is not unreasonable for H to take a few steps towards you. If he does would you consider DBing on?
