Doodler/bigy thanks for thoughts...
I have let resentment get better of me a couple times which I learned from. Will keep your tips in mind. He knows I have inkling on his feelings for OP. I read that feelings, esp if not reciprocated, will begin to fade so hope true. Having trouble taking step back/detaching since we are home often together. but have read in order to make a shift will need to do more (mentioned above I fear thats what he wants me to do so can approach me on outcome he desires).
