by the way from the point of view of B in his "there-now" reality he
calculates that is is
1) A that is slowed and not B
2) A that is slowed again and not B

and there is no contradiction because A thinks in terms of his there-
now reality and B thinks in terms of his "there-now"


as to what they actually see well it is symmetric again:
when they approach each other they see each other to be living faster
than themselves.
when they recede they see each other living slower than themselves


P.S. I dont know why so many books on relativity fail to make a clear
distinction between what is actually observed and what is estimated in
terms of simultanious reality. And very often the books mislead the
ready by stating "observed contraction and dilation of space time"
where in fact all they talk about is the "calculated contraction and
dilation of estimated there-now reality" which has nothing to do with
actual space-time
