I love hearing all your stories. Yes, I understood more about my relationship with my H after that session too. We were supposed to say how our family life was like our family of origin. I wrote on and on about how this family was like the family I grew up with, how it felt the same, we interacted the same, etc. My husband wrote that nothing about our family was like his family of origin. Whoops! That never occurred to me, that I had recreated my style of family and he felt excluded. Live and learn. I don't know that we have changed very much, but we try to make room for him to make choices in the home now.
