- Robert,
- I'm not qualified (is anyone?) to give advice, but this is what
- I think. She needs reminders...a letter once in a while, a picture of you
- together, flowers, whatever you can afford. Don't be obssesive and spend
- a lot of time doing the long sappy love letter, just a note, a page at
- most, keep it down, but tell her you love her and all. And be ready to
- accept an offer of friendship. If she has to move on...so be it, I'd hope
- you two were more than "lovers" it helps to be friends!
- The Companion
- P.S. Thanks for your help with my problem, outa sight outa mind! Good
- luck, at least be able to say you tried! :-)
