I asked him if he thinks he is the prefect companion. He said of course not. And then I asked what does he do to get better? Asked him if he read the book. He said nope. I told him, it's time to get off the pot.
Kalni, when I read this I wondered if you are asking for what you want/need enough (a hug, some reassurance, him planning a date for you...whatever it is)? Maybe he doesn't need to read a book. Maybe he just needs really clear feedback from you that he can contribute to your happiness, and what specific steps he can take to do that? Ignore me if I'm off-base.
The chance to see if this M is really what you want is a precious thing. It's inspiring to truly see you live in the optimism *and* pain of piecing.
