Evas,

I have read this entire thread. Seems like you are activating your capacity to change very quickly. I’m very proud of you and you have my support. Congratulations on all of the wonderful parenting you are giving S. If nothing else H bears witness to you being a wonderful mom.

Your H’s behavior is confusing, from following you around to the conversation with S. If it is any consolation, there appears to be some level (despite how small) that your H is responding in ways that invite a warmer interaction or at least concern for you. My H can’t even stand looking at me in the eyes; he hates my new glam, sex-pot look. The less of me he can see the stronger it makes him feel, I think.

As a DB newbie, maybe you have advice I am not thinking of at these earliest of stages.
