Agree with Kett on keeping your R friendly and fun and happy, and always keeping in mind his positives. As you have demonstrated already in your posts. Also agree with the right level of careful pushing/then backing off which you need to read and act accordingly along your path.
Kett: Is your advice for Lala to NOT schedule a discussion and back off completely at this time? What exact advice are you disagreeing with, and what would be your recommended action at this time?
