She was also being critical of herself, and I validated it a bit, but also said that despite the Bomb, she had been the nicest and most compassionate since then I've seen since I've know her. She said I was being very nice too, and that was important to her.
I mentioned that I didn't want to get caught in the "friendship" trap, but she thought that being good, caring friends was the start to any healthy relationship. In many ways I agree, but I don't want her thinking of me as her friend. I'm her husband, and she's my wife.
She's also confused about my desire for touch. I was never a touchy guy before, but now, I could hold her or cuddle forever. Yet another 180...
