"I am getting more confidence and I don't know if it's because H is responding to me more or is he responding to me more because I have more confidence?".
I like what you said RH. But what really matters is you are growing.
"What would a more romantic place in your R look like according to DB coach? Returning affections? Reaching for your hand sometimes? Arm around you as you go through a door together? Stuff like that?"
I believe so RH. Its something I really struggle with because I'm not sure if I will get that as H has never been the affectionate type. Attentive and thoughtful, yes but affectionate no. I think that is something we will have to work on at a later date if we reconcile, because it's something that I have longed for in my R. Therefore, whilst I can hold out longer, I am not sure how much longer I should hold out for affection. There are many other positive signs that are hopeful. I am very careful not to move in on him as you can probably tell.
Keep up the good work with RE school. I'm sure it will be worth it in the end and it sounds like your H is enjoying watching your growth as well. Good for you. Six weeks will fly by.
