Now, the real work begins..Part II

[HopeRB]

Catching up on V's boundary list b/c I need this myself but in the meantime, just want to comment on the comments from Au Bob and Tyler's points that, yes we need keep in mind that they think they are in control and that we are pathetic and not allow them to suck as back in with niceties. I've been trying to figure out this nice then disappearing dance from H for months now and it's a very fine line b/c I also struggle with not knowing just how far to go into detaching while wanting to be "friendly" and allow it to develop into something more.

So I'm just trying to GAL/180 and like Au Bob said, show him that I don't need his sympathy and I can get along just fine without him. Trying to not hang onto his every word or gesture.
