Hey ITH - That is a very positive email as he said that he does stil want to work on things but I agree with Julia you need to log off of IM and hold back a little. You are showing him that you are always at his disposal. You need to focus on your mental health right now and being so concerned about his doesn't help you. And Lola's comparison about us reaching for any crumb is soo true!! Hold back a little make him wonder why you are not online for a whole day. He is requesting space so you should show him what space is.
