Hi Starbuck,

I'm still a novice at going dark, and it hasn't actually worked that much for me, but looks like it's done good things for you!

Before I said I didn't want to talk and thought you were pushing a bit too much, but I never did say we should not talk/communicate at all. I just don't know.


The good thing that I get from that is the "I just don't know." Only in bizarre DB world would something like that be a positive, but I definitely take that as a sign of confusion. If he's confused, I would say that the door is still open.

If it were me, I would contact him (not right away--I'd wait 24 hours)with a pretty positive response,something that demonstrates one of your 180s. Perhaps you could say something like you've just been taking some time to think about what it is that you want and need, and that's why you hadn't had the chance to get back to him. This would demonstrate that you haven't been sitting around pining about the relationship, but that you've actually been questioning things too. You could either leave it at that, or say that maybe in the next week you'd be willing to meet up and talk.

ITH
