Since then, we have been staying a bit separate - just sort of doing our own things. She has been a bit more proactively attentive to me. I need to decide what my boundaries there are. If she asks for attention (hugs, etc) am I willing to go there (knowing that it sends me for a spin) without some sort of commitment from her? If now, how do I tell her?
Hugs, etc...my opinion is no. Tell her like this: "W, when we were a couple, that is just the kind of thing I would have loved, welcomed and cherished. You have clearly stated your intention to be apart from me and I have decided that includes you are apart from my affection, too."
Reality.
