To all,
I know I haven't been at this as long as many of you (Thanksgiving 04). I don't think I am as strong as some of you. I want my M to work and am willing to try, but I don't think I can live without some kind of deadline.

Here is what I am considering proposing tonight. We continue to work on things, since W hasn't said she is done. I offer SSM (up to her what to do with it). I believe she knows I want intimacy by now, so I'm not going to address that again. I will try to stop the R talks and work on showing her how I feel. We had discussed a deadline not too long ago and said that if there was no improvement in a year, then we would be done. I feel like I need to reiterate that for my own sanity. I love her, but can't go on like this forever (not willing to live without a SL).

Am I going about this in a reasonable way?
