Should I even leave out "Hi" and "Thanks" at the end?
I really, truly appreciate all the feedback. Luckily, I have just been freaking out on here but have not showed that to WH. I have not tried to contact at all and when he asked to talk yesterday I let him lead the discussion and remained calm and mature even though I felt like kneeing him in the balls a few times.
I guess I am confused because my DB made it seem like I should be nicer. She didn't actually say that. I guess when I saw him yesterday I was pleasant but I also wasn't complimenting him, etc. It is such a fine line - I dont want to be walked all over and for him to think that me letting my guard down means he can do that but I also don't want to be closed off.
For instance, he asked if he could fold the laundry. I was so surprised. I think he asked out of guilt but I just said "no thank you, thanks for asking. DB Coach said I should have said "How thoughtful of you, even in the midst of this you are offering. Thank you!" I don't know - to me that seems desperate or something. However, her comments may have also come from the fact that I explained he was very literally and sensitive.
