Mr. Lost, I think you're doing great. The changes to the house sound beautiful, and I agree, it would help win me over! I love a man who's handy around the house. And the comment, "You have a place to study too" is HUGE I think because she said it when her guard was down....pretty telling I hope. Just stay the course and no more conversations about relationships. Here's a question that might be sort of personal....how is life in the intimacy department? Do you think she still desires you?
