I understand I don't wasn't to pursue her and push her away at the same time I don't want to be so detached where she feels like I given up and push her away even more so.
Is there ever a case where "detached loving" is not necessarily the best course of action. How can sitting back and letting her do everything for herself improve our situation?
You'll have to take that up with Michele Weiner-Davis, O.I.N. It is her concepts we are preaching, and in which we believe really work.
I know it's all very counter-intuitive, but please give them a chance.
