obviously he's not ready. or not willing. the reason doesnt matter, it is not going to happen any time soon. understand this.

his words and actions are telling you to back off.

his "confusion" may last a long time. there is nothing you can say or do to speed it up. but every time you meddle, it adds more time.

so just stop.

and whenever you try to manipulate and get him to commit, or to buy a house together, or force reconciliation by texting what the mediator said, you just add to the mess. you're continuously making it worse.

go back to dividing the business, stop trying to tie the business into the relationship.

if the relationship is going to ever be resurrected, then just step back and give it time.



the "confusion" above is quoted because i dont believe he's confused, i believe he's in damage control mode. he's trying to save the work-relationship by saying whatever he thinks will make you back-off.
