I like these suggestions a lot. I haven't read those books labug, but I will. I am willing to try anything. Here's a q: since I've already apologized and he doesn't seem to want to talk, when I go home today, should I just stay out of his way? Or is there something else I'm missing, like "trying again" to be kind or something? I'm fine with either, I just honestly can't see this too clearly right now. I don't want it to appear like I stopped caring since I left for the night, but I also don't want to be a doormat.
