First off, I am sorry to hear about Cheddie, I know you are very attached and I know that you will certainly miss him. I'm very sorry.
Second, I like what you said here:
Quote: Yes, I know what to do...just not yet. The opportune time must be right. But, it is necessary to discuss the issues. I won't invest 100% into this, until I know that this is legit.
There is no rush on this is there? Take your time, feel him out, make sure this is what YOU want, make sure HE is actually ready for all of this, and make sure that YOU protect yourself in anyway neccesary. The last thing that you need is to get hurt again. Slow and steady, if he is back for real then a little time certainly won't matter to him. AT's open ended questions are great, just make sure the timing is right before you do to much probing. For now take your time and make sure that your chemistry is still there and something that you really want to pursue. If not, there's always thong boy CM, allthough I think your H would be easier to deal with
