2TP said - Outstanding progress here! Just amazing! Think about how much validation you just received with the comments your W made. I mean you felt like things were improving, but your W pretty much confirmed it as well and in a fairly public way.

I am making absolutely sure I keep thinking in terms of how I want to cintinue improvement and lead my life differently based on what I have learned.
If we can R fully then great, but I am not putting any time pressure on her at all. In a way, her recent thawing has made it easier for me to stick to my DB plan, which has in turn made her feel more at ease, and so on.
Looking back, I never imagined progress based on how bad it was, and it was so awful, and I remember my first post on this blog. I was so out of mind with pain and rage. I remember being so resisatnt to much of the DB concepts. When 25 yrs used to lay the wood on I was furious beyond measure, but then I remember thinking to myself that even if I can't see how she could say those things I going to trust her and follow the principles. I almost puked when I decided to do that. I was so worked up. I was an insane wounded animal...god you should have seen it.
