FG I can't express to you how much I felt like you have. No progress in my situation. It wasn't until I stopped expecting anything and was quiet that progress started to happen.
I spent months of smiling and nodding, no R talk, no expectations, no talk really about myself to h. I would just let h talk and then I would listen and say things like h that is wonderful, wow h how exciting, I am so proud of you, you are so smart, sorry your feeling down, anything I can do to help.
Do you get the picture FG? Just put your h's needs right now above yours and be consistent in your actions. I like to do things as experiments. Then sit back and see how your h responds.
We know it works in theory, because my h is now responding to my months of seed planting. Now the big test is it enough to bring him home?
