I am thrilled to hear from you! Thanks so much for stopping by my thread :).
I REALLY appreciate your positive thoughts and words. It is hard when you are in the midst of it not to wonder why you don't have more...it's like each step closer to the goal it's easier to see the goal, and you feel like you are there. I freaked out about emails that most people would love to get, because I was expecting what I had before the bomb. This was my mistake, and I am trying to reset expectations...
I love your running analogy, and I will try to make use of it. I am backing off and slowing down, as much as is possible now. I will still be doing nice things for H, but am no longer going to contact him, to reach out, or to initiate any kind of physical affection. I am going to let him dictate the pace even more than I had been doing, and do my best not to spook him and scare him off. We are close now, and slow is good. Slow is fine.
A big thanks to you. I always love hearing from new people, and your words of encouragement mean so much to me.
