I totally understand about taking time off from the board, too.
Sorry you are feeling like this. God knows you can find a number of posts like yours from me (and others) Yes it does kinda s*ck. But spend any time on the Newcomer's section and there are a lot of guys who would take what you have.
You know the answers - it's a process, it takes time. But it's hard when you aren't feeling the affection.
I had this thought the other day I am choosing to be here. That mean's I am choosing to deal with the ups and downs, choosing to wait for my W. It's a choice and that's the "power" I have over this situation. You have made that choice too
Any chance you are still dealing with the kiss from the other day? like thinking it might lead to others. It is a trap.
My W gave me a kiss on New Year's day - out of the blue. then I didn't get a kiss from her for 7 weeks (sadly I counted)
Even when it comes back, it's still work.
As for the side note, I'd let it go. I saw it that she was talking about your family and not some coded message about your future.
