Hey Amy, I just finished reading the last 2 days worth of posts on your thread and a thought came to mind as I started reading your "time for him to speak up" post. So a bit of food for thought here.
Over the last year and a half I've read most of your threads and if there's an observation I've made in all of it, its this, your husband struggles when faced with these situations, it seems he specifically struggles in being able to adequately respond in the right ways. He seems to ultimately know what he thinks and feels but needs a hand to hold and/or help guide him in order to say it. Your hand.
So maybe, just maybe what he needs is not that little push but a guiding or supportive hand. A hand that doesn't broach the subject directly but helps him by giving him the opportunity and maybe helps show him the way a little.
