You know this is just a step. He is going to think about what he said to you and what you said to him. He may be beginning to move down the road a little, only time will tell.
You know, it is funny, my H said move on, but he can't talk about the fact that I dated before we met without getting angry. But he wants me to know he will be ok.
Just keep doing what you are doing and see where it leads.
"Acceptance doesn't mean resignation. It means understanding that something is what it is and there's got to be a way through it."--Michael J. Fox
