Cake eating or progress?

from what I've read from others, you should probably expect the feelings of anger at his betrayal of you to grow.
you'll have to deal with it one way or another, eventually. Either by you somehow truely letting go of it... or at some point, having him apologize to you, and deciding to accept it.

as far as the 'connection' goes... i think you have it pretty easy. just keep doing what you were doing, but do it more often.
