I am sticking my toe back in, Pearl - I stepped back a bit because I made the mistake of implying you were "excited". Your initial response didn't seem to imply either way, so I was just covering the bases.
However, I'm SO glad you have seen this correctly. If xBF is having second thoughts, it's not going be some wimpy rambling second thoughts.
I saw someone say sometime, "He should be willing to crawl through broken glass for me."
