Marching forward with deal breakers in hand

[mdu]

I think I'll hold off on that for the moment figgeroni! I am happy to be friendly but not sure if I want to go further without a firmer commitment from him. And at some point HE has to initiate things, kwim?

Today is a tough day. My Mom is putting my Dad in a home. I am not going along with, although my sister is (we're trying not to make a big production of it). I will visit him in a week or two once he's settled in. But of course it's constantly on my mind and will be quite emotional when I speak to my Mom a bit later.

H knows this is all going on and sent me a txt early this morning regarding some logistics for S's b-day party tomorrow and also said "If there's anything I can do for you today please don't hesitate to ask". I didn't reply to that part, not really sure what to say. I'm sure he feels badly about it but I don't want to get caught up in that and confuse it with hope that he's wanting to completely recommit to the M.
