I agree with the others comments. Calling your W sweetie isn't the end of the world and IF it was a mistake, it's not a big one by any stretch of the imagination.

And I agree completely with what Thinker says. That's the hardest part, how and when to begin pursuing again.

I think I've said this before, let her drive the ship in that regard. Try to slowly, oh so slowly, reel her back in. But if you sense that she's pulling back, stop what you're doing immediately. Give her some more time. Then when she starts giving you signals again, start the pursuit.

I was there many times. I would see what I thought was a signal that W wanted more and I would pursue and then I'd realize I'd either misread the signal or she changed her mind. So I backed off. Heck, sometimes what a WAS wants today will be totally different than what they want tomorrow, or even in a few hours. You just have to be on top of your spidey sense and adjust.

Keep it up. You're making progress.
