Erika Ettin: What to do in a confusing situationship

Q: I don't know what to make of Richard. I've seen him three times, including the trip upstate, and each time he indicated that he wanted to see me again, but I don't sense a whole lot of enthusiasm.

He was initially undecided about whether or not he was going away for Thanksgiving, then ended up going away. I was sort of hoping to get a Thanksgiving greeting. So I finally sent a greeting and he responded but didn't even ask what I was doing for Thanksgiving/how I was. A couple days later, I reached out to ask if he was back. He responded and this time he did ask what I did for Thanksgiving/how I was.

Before Thanksgiving, he had said he wanted to hear me sing and even asked if he could come to the studio. When we had dinner, he said he'd be happy to help me carry my gear to a performance.
