I do agree with you about the dynamics of the chase. In this case though, I've been being playful with her to gain back her trust and friendship. It's basically for the kids. Flirting was probably too strong of a word.
I'm really not that interested in getting into a R with her right now cuz she's got alot of issues to deal with. However, I feel sorry for her about the depression and while it's not my place to "cure" her or make her feel better, I still intend to keep things friendly between us.
Her depression affected her such that she was getting these mood swings that started affecting our co-parenting. And if there's one thing I have to do with her even if we may not be together is to be good parents.
Plus things have been going in a positive direction (maybe not in the way of getting together) but at least its building. I've never dealt with anyone with depression before, but once I saw it affecting the kids, I decided to do what I could to lessen it's impact.
"sufficient time to take place" is exactly right.
Thanks dude for the input.
