Interesting. The reason I asked is that we all seem to give very similar advice here. Sometimes the same advice just doesn't fit the sitch though.

For example, I think stepping up and taking charge is one of the things that chased my W away. Doing more of this would just make matters worse whereas in your case it may be just what the Dr ordered.

In my case, if I pulled the trigger my W would feel that it is more of me controlling the sitch. In your case it may be something that your W respects.

It gets old. That's for sure. Strangely as gut wrenching as it is, as much as I feel like curling up in the fetal position and sucking on my thumb (as someone on your thread put it a few days ago), there's a weird sense that at least something is going to change.

I'll still pray for the Retro for you.
