Psych77, first I wanted to thank you again for what you shared on my thread. It helped me immensely.
Anyway, I see a lot of positives in your interactions with your wife based on what you've written. I agree that it takes a lot of time and patience to work through these issues in a marriage, and it's certainly not easy to stay the course without getting frustrated, but you're obviously making a lot of progress.
And your wife is definitely noticing your positive changes.
