Piecing - where to go from here?

[Hurt-but-Hopeful]

Thanks MZ & Jack - it will definitely be nice to be off moderation!

I'm trying to be patient and keep focusing on doing things for me, sometimes I just want this to be "fixed" & over with, ya know?

We did have a good conversation last night. One of his complaints about me is that I haven't fully opened up to him or trust him. So I told him that I kind of danced around asking him how "we" were doing because I still couldn't trust that he wouldn't just decide he was done & leave. He said he was definitely staying to work on things, didn't have any sort of time frame in mind & as long as we were making some kind of progress, he was okay. I think MC on Friday will get us started on truly piecing. His idea is to just let things progress naturally & see how it goes. Of course, I'd rather be actually doing something to work on things. Have you noticed patience isn't my strong suit? LOL.
