RH, I hope you know how much I like you and respect you. And I do not in anyway want to offend you.
But it is because of how fond I am of you that I feel that I want to say a few things, if I may.
While I understand that your relationship is still very delicate, I dont want to see you lose you, ya know?
My goal with H right now is to just let him be who he wants to be. To love him.. To respect him and support his goals and dreams.
I would like to see this ^^^ be your goal for you, too. Be you, RH. Be who you want to be. Let him fall in love with her. Because I think she is pretty amazing.
I think you might want to practice the part of detaching that involves not allowing his actions and words to affect yours.
You are so tentative around him. I get that you dont want to rock the boat, but, you gotta get in the boat. You gotta take a trip in the boat.
I know you are worn out for the last few years. It is ok to take care of you. It is ok to let him see confidence and that you are living your life, too.
I wouldnt bring a balloon. A bottle of wine is always good. And be you, RH.
I hope that you take this post in the manner in which it was intended. And that is because I care.
