Just a question, should I be engaging in the "I love you's" or is this not helping the situation? He never says "I love you" unless he is just responding to me, and even then, it sounds a bit forced and awkward. I don't want to push, but do want him to know how much I care. I guess I'm just not sure where that line is...
Don't say I love you. Especially don't smother him. I did that to my wife and it pushed her away faster than anything else I think. She did the forced ILY's for 4 months! I was saying it all the time and she never wanted to say it back but she would to get rid of me - you don't want to go there. She was feeling bad that she didn't feel the same as me at that point in time so the ILY's made it worse. Get the R back into shape then start thinking about the words. Actions right now speak much louder than words - so just SHOW him you care.
We can talk ourselves into defeat or we can talk ourselves into victory - we are creatures of our thinking.
