I have the above list posted in 2 places in the house--fridge and the master bathroom.
We did try to have conversations while in C, but H won't speak to me at this point, so I haven't had a chance to practice. I will say that I had a hard time myself following the rules. Eye contact is hard, no sarcasm is hard, and letting the other speak for 5 minutes without interruption is really hard. And my H can't really get through anything without breaking one of the "staying calm, no yelling"-type rules. Which he then won't apologize for.
It's not easy for either of us. At LEAST he can no longer tell himself the lie that communication has always been my problem!
