Thank you so much for posting the 'other side's' perspective, now I KNOW I've made the right changes
The big unveiling of me skating will happen next Weds - I cannot wait to see his face
Something strange about patience, for as long as I thought I needed a deadline so that I can 'make a decision' patience seemed to be a difficult beast to tame. Now that I've re-framed myself to view little improvements or changes as something I will do for the rest of my life - well hey, there seems to be all the time in the world Regardless of whether I will be with NG, I see myself as someone who will now be constantly re-evaluating what I am doing NOW, not preparing for some hypothetical future.
Slowly
