Great!
Quote: ------------------------------------------------ Can a year be considered a 'postponement', lol? ------------------------------------------------
The time period is entirely up to you. A year could be an eternity, or it could be a flash in the pan. It depends on the pace of the progress. I would leave the postponement open ended. If in a few months it becomes apparent that your relationship is stuck back into the old mold, and you know in your heart that you have tried everything short of explosives to move it off center, then it may be time to call it quits.

Yes.
Quote: ------------------------------------------------------------ His behavior lately has spoken volumes... ------------------------------------------------------------
Good. I am glad that he is staying outside of his comfort zone. That is an uncomfortable place for both of you in the relationship, but it is a very good place to be.
Please keep me posted.
