The past few times when she was taking baby steps and things were going well, I got impatient, assumed she wanted back in an R and reacted to it. This time I am not jumping. Not unless I hear something really specific from her. I am not going to make much of the AOSs or gifts etc. No way. Been there, done that.
When she has been coming over and lying on the bed with D3 etc. I am playing with D3 as well or sometimes I lie down away from W (sufficient space between us for a small automobile to pass through) and act cool. (Don't worry Wes, "restraint" is my middle name, I am your antithesis in that regard). I am staying detached but with a mild whiff of availability. Another year of forced celibacy and this detachment thing and I should qualify for Buddhist monkhood without any tests or entry-level tribulations (I may just go on and order the robes in advance, what the heck, I might look good in robes ).
Note that this gradual closure of space and the baby-steps have become consistent since Nagasaki (May 22, when she last said she wants a D). Go figure....

The 3 laws of DBing:
1. PMA is critical to DBing.
2. Since drop in WAW's PMA leads to drop in LBS's PMA and vice-versa detachment is critical.
3. Validate to raise WAW's PMA and GAL to raise LBS's.
