Then the relationship does not progress - can mean anything or nothing. I would tend to see it more as a t's hypothetical - the relationship does not improve, it's in a holding pattern so it might get a little worse. As a fishwife I would see it as, I'm not going to sleep with you until you resolve this to my liking. Then as a battered husband seeking revenge, I would drive recklessly the next time I got a chance. Bad pattern. Do you have any dr phil books about how to work stuff outt?

Eta: night-night!
