Hi BobbiJo. Sorry I haven't been by lately. It sounds like you are making a lot of progress. Just try to be patient w/ your H. Be happy that H is willing to work and let him do it on his time table. I understand the ring thing. My H has not worn his for about 1 1/2 years. I know it will be awhile if and when he decides to put it on. Love your suggestion of new rings.
My H won't kiss me either although he will allow me to kiss him on the cheek. The other day when I sent him a very risky text I told him it upsets me that I'm good enough to do his laundry and something physical to him(I was move explicit w/ H) but not good enough for a hug. Yesterday I give him a hug before I left for work since H was leaving town and H actually put his arms around me. I think sometimes they just don't realize how there actions and inactions affect us.
As for the ILY, be patient. H might not feel he deserves to tell you that. Mine kind of cringed the other night when I let it slip out. All I can say is patience, patience, patience.
