Anyway, in the world of uphill... XF is still on the colder side of the street. She didn't completely shut me out but has been shorter with her words and doesn't initiate as much contact as last week. I have toned back my approach to match hers. I still reach out once a day or so just to say hi, thinking about cutting that out completely? Last week it was recieved very well but as mentioned the responses are shorter so maybe it's best to just eliminate that for now. I just didn't want to look like a jerk by stopping completely as if I was angry.
I looked at that both ways. By being a bit cordial and saying good morning, it reinforces what we had talked about last week that we are on very good terms lately. On the other shoe, it makes me a friend which isn't what I signed up for. That is how I decided on middle ground, just a short message that makes me look like a good person.
