I agree it is a marathon. Slowly understanding and simultaneously trying to grasp everyone saying to be patient here.

Yesterday and today is what I would say cold. I messaged him a video of our other dog yesterday and he didn’t respond. No messages today either, and I too hadn’t messaged him. Don’t know if I should either. Seems like when he pulls back, I pull back. And when I can’t stand it any longer, I’ll message him something arbitrary and he will respond. Is he actually waiting for me to say something first? The little stupid details I get caught up on.
