I am not sure why you'd be interested in my opinion, since I think I may have screwed up things royally the past couple of days, but I appreciate it nonetheless!
In many ways, it is easier to give advice to others than take it yourself - from my perspective (husband whose wife wants out and just gave in out of my sheer exhaustion and her unyielding belief that out is the solution), I think the advice you have received from others on your thread is right on. I can only echo some of the more familiar strains:
No pressure Have lots and lots of patience No R talks Just try to enjoy what interaction you do have
I do like the squirrel metaphor (if you want to have one eat out of your hand, don't chase it!).
I hope you can benefit from th emistakes I fear my impatience and frustration have caused.
