There's a lot of great advice here already.

I know this happens. I've felt it myself sometimes. But I just try to remind myself that this is the investment part - sometimes it takes a lot longer, but the question is what will they be able to produce this time next year? It's a good feeling when someone goes from taking a long time and having bad intuition, and seeing them get to a better place. The red flag is when they don't seem to improve over quite some time.

Hopefully if you're taking that much time together, you enjoy each others company, which I think is a good sign!
