Lots of interesting ideas, Regretful.

I like the idea of you taking the bull by the horns and moving back into your bed. You can't make him love you and you can't change him but you can decide to take the focus off him. That could end up making a difference to how he responds. That would be a by-product and not the point. Since he's not expressing any positives now you might as well try something else.

Are you still giving him back rubs? You haven't mentioned POW in a while. I think there is positive movement in your sitch but I think your (understandable) impatience might be slowing things down

What was your H like at his best? I believe that my H can be a better match for me than he is at the moment because he used to be.

Hang in there, Regretful. It isn't really that long since you moved back in.
