I guess where I keep getting stuck is how to pull this off without it being pursuit. What I hear you saying is to open up my emotions to her, which means R talk, which I thought was taboo. Is it that I should tell her how I'm feeling? I don't see how I can have that discussion without it leading to US.
Don't you open up about emotions here with no R talks. The difference here is we are truly detached and it's transparent. What a concept! How you feel is how you feel, if I stepped on your toes would you say something? Plus I would want to know if I did. It's just feedback and I would not take it personally. Relationship talk is about where is this going, past offenses/old wounds, accusations/getting defensive and how the other must change. Talking about your feelings is just you talking about you. Keep the talk off the marriage and you will be alright.
