That is fantastic my friend! That is a good sign I think. Don't rush things. Make sure you read the archives in piecing so you know what to expect.

Also have you read the 5 Love Languages? I am reading it right now and it really does shed some light on R.

I think you still need to remain cool at this point. I mean let her come to things at her own pace.

Spend the time reflecting on you.

I am happy you are seeing positive signs, however, I am a little concerned that the issues that brought you here have not been addressed and if so this will not have longevity.

You are moving into territory that I have not been through (piecing) so I am hopeful some more experiencde folk can chime in here....
