Does anyone have any advice as to how to handle the situation that I described in my last post? I don't know if I should keep giving her all the space she wants during this period or maybe try making our relationship more amicable by being more friendly than I've been.
No pursuit of any kind. Continue to follow Sandi2's 37 Rules. It is OK to be friendly to her in a "friendly neighbor" sort of way. Have light and fluffy conversations, no serious R talks. Let her initiate all talks.
A very common mistake with LBSs is they think after a few weeks or months it's OK to start pursuing again, but it is NOT. The WAS will let the LBS know if they've decided to work on things, until then the LBS needs to give them tons of time and space and quit pursuing them and reminding them that they're waiting for them. It's clingy, needy, unattractive behavior when the LBS does that. The LBS needs to become strong, self-sufficient and independent like they were when they met the WAS. THAT is what is attractive to a WAS.
