Yea, my W did that too. I got suckered in a few weeks back. I had a back slide and then she said, this is hard for me too. That's when I cut her off and told her I didn't want to hear it. I had been praying that we could communicate for quite some time and I was told by someone that this could be her way of trying to talk to me.

Anyway, I was coached on how to approach the sitch differently and allow her to communicate any feelings she has.

It's still tough, our instincts are to care for our spouses in a time of need.

It's hard holding back.
