Can My Marriage Be Saved?

[a girl]

Girl, it sounds to me like you are spending too much time telling your H what you're doing to give him space, i.e. telling him you almost asked for a hug, apologizing for being so close to him. Just do, don't talk about it, IMO.

Guh! You're right - that's a good call out. Thanks for the reminder.

Don't talk about it, just do it. Easier said than done, if I may be forgiven a terrible joke.
