I know it is disappointing because you have been making such amazing progress but remember to have patience. I know you want to be his number 1 again but there has been a long period of time since you have been that (and often that woman need to be number 1 is what drives the man away in the first place). Just because he has been more 'open' as it were doesn't mean you are going to sprint back to that position. This isn't like when you meet someone for the first time, it is a different process and I think you are going to have to ride the wave on this one for a while, as frustrating as that may be.
