In most cases the H is told to go back to the house and "reclaim" his position, but in your case, I think she'll see you as being just within her fingertips....but still unavailable to her. It's like getting what she thought she wanted but then discover the truth. If things go in the right direction, then you can go back into the house with a woman who truly wants you there.
It is not about what you feel should work in your M. It is about doing the work that gets the right results. Do what works!
