Hrm, i often wonder if they do just that "move further away physically to block the closeness they feel in their head". Do they back themselves into a corner with their actions and the hurtful things they say, then just don't know how to fix the situation, because of shame or pride?
I know its a typical MLC thing when you see a positive sign then they withdraw. I think my H doesn't know what to do because I am so nice to him. When he choses to spew venom over me and I dont react, its almost like he gets angry that he is acting like a total jerk. Then he comes good again for a while. Is that possible? or just me looking for any positive signs that the original man is still in there somewhere?
