I agree that maybe backing off now and giving H time to digest your discussion is in your best interest. He knows where your heart is now, so wait a little bit and see what move he makes next. Show him your changes and someone who he would want to spend the rest of his life with. Get back to the core christarn -- bring back those things that attracted H to you in the first place; be that woman again (without sacrificing your principles and values).
Steel,
That is irony at its finest! Maybe I'll try posting something like that to see if the Irony Gods will throw a bone my way! Good luck, brotha!
