I don't know if I would have done things differently but I surely would get to work on learning to be direct/to take action MUCH sooner than I did. OT told me to do that all the time and I thought she was crazy. Why would I want to be direct and take action with a woman who didn't want me?

Turns out she didn't want me as much because she thought I didn't want her as anything else. Go figure. How did she miss all that desperation over the past year? Oh, you mean desperation, neediness and cling-on behavior don't register to a woman as passion and desire? Hmmmmmm...

Isn't there a fine line between being direct and being needy? This part confuses me. I don't know exactly how to be direct with my W. She knows where I stand and I just otld her the other day that this is something she wants and she has to do it.


In the past I would beg, plead and borrow to get what I needed out of her. She has recognized that and tells me that she doesn't want to hurt me anymore.

The focus has become more about me and less about her but, my focus can be on her and the OM all too often. Not directly to her, but subconciously. My issue becomes whether or not it is worth the wait. Like you stated. Why would I want to focus my attention on someone who doesn't want me? What good does it do me to keep hanging on? I would love for reconcilliation, but I don't see it happening.
