Some very good development. I thought it was great that he broke the ice on the e-mail....he was probably nervous about how you felt as well. I thought his e-mail had a little bit of the "brake pedal" to it, but not too major. He spent the majority of it talking about how he appreciated the good time and how he appreciated you. The rest is natural...he wants to make sure he is doing it for the right reasons.
I thought it was great that he went and talked with your family...that is no small task for a WAS....remember they are often viewed as the bad guy...regardless of how we contributed o the sitch. I also thought it was good you let him take the lead on the paperwork.....very smart move from a lady.
You are very good at this and you have a lot of patience those can only be good things. It is good that you have a "pre-planned" break due to travel.....I wouldn't be happy to see that he has contacted you before that...of course you know what to do.
I am very happy for you!!!!
