WFM. Then start treating him as business partner and do NOT worry about losing him. You get it? Act as if he was ME. What would say to me if I were your partner and I was going to make a poor business decision. That is my opinion.

On the R side of things sorry I don't see you making much progress. What are doing to work on yourself? Seriously? You are still hyper focused on your H. You let yourself walk on eggshells. You do realize this is your character flaw, not his.
