That's one of those questions I ask myself in relationships occasionally.
We're father apart, hmmmm. I wonder who moved. Did the other person move,
or did I?

Nobody can really answer that but you, Tia, but I can say from my own
experience that I'm often the one who's moved.

When we got farther apart it was both of us, me in reaction to him. This
time I think maybe it's the other way. I've moved in a little closer in
ways that he can handle. That lets him move in a little closer too. And .
. . I think he's getting easier with all the changes he's been going
through, easier with being "different".
