yes- it is a fine line. and i thought that a lot- but i just didnt want to risk it. you can try in a small way and see how he reacts. if he reacts well then take it slow- if it gets worse then PULL back.
i just didnt want to risk the latter. and what i am doing has worked. i still have not opened up a ton really. just shared a few insights- very few. mostly just heard him and his needs.
he has not seen me cry or be sad. at all. not easy.
so what has worked in your sitch? have you tried opening up yet? has it worked?
