Thanks for the advice breton39.

I don't think she is ready to talk relationship yet. So far, whenever she mentions our relationship, it is only to say that we are not getting back together again. But she has mentioned several times that she is glad that I finally got my act together. So maybe in 6 months to a year she would be willing to give us another chance (I am definitely hoping/praying).

It is always hard to tell what she is feeling/thinking. Sometimes I wonder if she thinks we are just always going to be just friends and that what I am doing for her is just normal. My friends at first thought I was stupid for trying to make things work out after the divorce, but now they have come to really admire what I am trying to do. But most of all, they tell me that my ex has to see that I am really making an effort and that I am not just being a friend. But who knows - I don't want to get into the guess game.

All I know is that I love my ex/daughter more than anything in the world and I am willing to give it my all.
