Sorry water, my magic "8" seems to be broke! ... keep gettin "Ask me later". <Just kiddin'>

He said again that he can see the changes that I am making. But in a way it pisses him off. He said, why now? why did you wait until we got to this point and I'm living up here by myself?"
I told him that I truly wish I would have done it 5 years ago, but I didn't. It happened now. And I can only say it will never go back to the way it was.


Michele points out this is the classic "text book" reaction. It also means he is sortin out all of this, so its usually works to give them space during this time.

However, with that said, it also seems to work in your favor when you initiate ... so without my magic "8" ball to help ... I'd say go ahead with option #2 and put it out there. If he says "no", then be OK with it and accept he needs his space now. If he says "yes", it means he's looking for a distraction from his current "inside the head wrestling" and what better distraction to have than you spending a good time with him.

Disclaimer: If this turns out to be bad advise, I blame it on the broken magic "8" ball!!!

'til later,
KAW
