Don’t get caught up in worrying about what he is doing. It will take you to a less desirable place that is frought with expectations. Just keep going on your path. Let him go on his. The interactions, while easier, may or may not mean anything. Only time will show you that. Let things happen as they are supposed to. You may just be surprised by the results.
"Acceptance doesn't mean resignation. It means understanding that something is what it is and there's got to be a way through it."--Michael J. Fox
