Hi Hailey,

I can imagine how emotionally draining it must be when after such a big decision one makes in a relationship, you feel its not leading you anywhere soon. But I can say that all you need to do at this juncture is have loads of patience and understanding. If your partner is a sensetive and an emotional person , it must be more difficult for him to cope with the bereavement of his parent. I know when it happened to me..when I had lost my father to a sudden illness..it changed the course of my life..it changed me from within. Life suddenly halted and changed its meaning..atleast for sometime untill I could gather myself back again.

Am sure the pace with which  you are expecting him to move ahead with you in the relationship is not going to pick the speed unless he is healed at heart. Its just a matter of time..I believe. And, if you stand strong and close throughout with your support, am sure you would have more loving HIM and more loving relationship ahead..

Cheers!!
