Shooting stars around your heart

Hi OD,

Can't help but sort of agree with the others who mention confrontation...

I understand it hasn't worked for you in the past, but just wondering, given the fact that you have a "crush" if you might be able to come at it more from a position of strength this time? Is there any possible way that you could mention that there could be another person in the picture, but that you would really prefer to make things work with him? Do you think he would feel too guilty and just tell you to go ahead and do it?

I guess if you aren't ready for the LRT, i.e. aren't ready to truly throw in the towel, it mightn't be worth it.

In terms of going dark/dim, I understand this hasn't worked with your H historically, but do you think that in lieu of having an out and out R discussion with your H, you could try this anyway? Do you think that if you only responded very briefly to the contact that HE initiated, he might start to panic a little? Have you tried this? Do you think it would increase his guilt?

I just really feel like your H has these obvious feelings for you, and that something has to hit him over the head to make him realize that he could lose you!
