PL! Long time no see. REALLY nice to hear from you and thanks for your advice.

I have a difficult time talking to W about things because she still gets very defensive about anything. So right now I'm just working on being patient and being her friend. And yes, DBing should never stop.

Re ML, this is a very tough (oops, no pun intended) sitch as I am really looking for her to make the first move as that would be a huge indicator that she is feeling closer to me. On the other hand, I agree that I don't ever want her to think that I am not interested in her as that would be the farthest from the truth.

I am very glad to see you and H are doing well. Please keep in touch and ALL advice is greatly welcome.
