Jackie, That's so great. Your H is very close to being at the point where you will be able to fully and openly express your feelings to him. Keep the patience. I think you're at the point where slipping in an ILY here and there is OK, just don't go overboard. As I said above though, you're pretty close to being able to go right overboard. You'll know when...your H will let you know..I'm not sure how..but he will.
A dream it's true
But I'd see it through
If I could be
Wasting my time with you
