Hi all - "was never in love"

[Mat]

Thanks all - sorry to hear about the move Wet. Hope you're feeling OK! My W is picking her stuff up next Saturday. I need to find somewhere else to be for that day. Any ideas? I'm thinking I'll want to be with people, so may end up inviting myself over at someone's place.

On reflection, maybe the article depicts the "post-LRT" resolution in this guy's story. Like pilot says, the mending would have been accelerated by the bad boyfriend (OM). So maybe she started reaching back, and for all we know he would have been disciplined about not jumping up and doing cartwheels whenever she beckoned. Maybe he was just a strong but disciplined presence at the right time. And article mentions that it was always under the guise of family or logistical stuff, that he never pressured her into a date. So he wasn't chasing. Eventually they started having a good time again... This is written from his POV after they got back together, so he emphasises the friendship bit at this point...

Just thinking out loud. Maybe I'll run it by my coach, though I want to use the session on action-oriented, forward-looking stuff.

If that's right, then the right answer is still to go dark, and respond appropriately when she contacts. Helpful and decent, but not clingy, and as scarce as practicable.
