I think your plan of taking a break and checking out some other ts is a good one. I have had several-I don't think that the things that your current t does that you like are hard to find.

I do not like the "why is that important to you?" question. I think it is a way of avoiding the issue and is just a phrase that is used to deflect attention. To me, the things that you want from the relationship are normal things to want from anyone.
