Your conversations seem to be working. Good job taking a break from them when needed.
It is wise to figure out what you really need to know vs what you want know - or what you feel you want to know. Just imagine in ten years, some things you really want to know right now, won’t really matter.
Not to worry, H will reveal a lot of answers himself as he feels more and more safe and secure with you (and that is about him not you). Don’t press or push too hard, he is going to take some time getting his bearings.
Keep doing what works and less of what doesn't.
Was nice hearing from you.

Feelings are fleeting. Be better, not bitter. Love the person, forgive the sin.
