Rain, why don't you unblock him? It's a step. But not after he went out -- that might seem like you are caving in out of fear. But soon.

Can you get a coaching session? It seems like this is a critical time for you, and you could benefit from that one on one advice.

I would give almost anything for W to contact me like XF is contacting you. I'm still reading that book about listening, and I'm pretty motivated. But I'm still not contacting her... I know she still loves me, and just yesterday she mentioned to a mutual friend that she's created such a mess that we should both leave our town. I don't understand what the mess is and why it requires such a drastic move. And I know she doesn't mean it at the same time. But if I still seem at least in part like a safe haven, that's something.
