Yeah! It sounds like things are building slowly. Good for you for being SOOOOOO patient. I'm PROUD of you! It must be somewhat hard to wait for H to initiate, but this way you will know that it is his choice. When is the swim meet at which H will see your mother? I agree that H is probably planning to use this as a gauge.
Thanks for your update! It helps the rest of us to see how reconnection occurs.
I like your reply to Sanderika. You always have good insights on things. What you said about her H's actions after his vacay helped me to think about my situation differently. Thanks!
