ok- now i have tons of questions on how to BE with my H.


Simply be who you have become.......anything else will make your changes seem not genuine.

what do men really need? i know ACCEPTANCE is #1.


Not necessarily. Typical "Male" needs are

Sex
Playmate
An Attractive Spouse
Peace and Quiet at Home
Admiration

These are from the table of contents from His Needs/Her Needs. It is a pretty decent book. There are a correspondig set of female needs. It is worth a read he obviously might not fit the text book male just like you might not fit the textbook female.

Your H seems to communicate very well and seems to really understand himself. You both agree that communication is something that you need to work on. At some point he might be willing to plow through this book with you....you will know if you can do that.

how to not make him feel weak. how to talk but not over do it.


You seem to be doing this very well now. Experiment a little bit. You expressed a need and he didn't run away. I would for the most part let him take the lead. He is doing a good job with it and is being very open....why ruin a good thing
