I need a sit-down with a former WAW. Where is Sandi when you need her??
Oh I never left you. Been here all the time. If I thought you weren't getting good advice, I would have jumped in.
I suppose all men have this same problem if they get to this stage. Maybe it goes back to their primal ways of feeling the chase has been successful. They are ready to bring the WAW come home so they can pick up their lives and go forward. However, she does not feel that she's there yet. She feels that she needs things to go slow and carefully. She's excited, surprised and scared. That requires you to continually show her the new & improved Crimson.
Proceed with caution. Do not take for granted that she'll come home. Even when it gets to the stage where passionate kisses come, do not think it's over. You will have to court her. Old fashion courting! When you see her showing any signs of frustration or acting cool, that is your signal to step back. She feels that her agenda has totally changed but she's not sure what the revised agenda is right now.
Personally, I don't see this as piecing yet. But at least you are headed in the right direction and things look good.
What about the D? Maybe I missed something, but was things put on hold with the court dates? I remember the Judge not showing up, but did she tell her lawyer to wait?
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!
