How to make it work again?

[scaredsilly]

Hello friends. My H and I have decided to try to make our marriage work after a one-year separation.
After the first 6-7 months of separation, I "dropped the rope" and had started D movement. My L was just about to send H a letter when H sent me an email with questions about the possibility of him being my H again.

I stopped all D activity with mt L and after some R conversations with H, he decided he wanted to come home.

What I'm finding is our interactions seem a little stiff, guarded, and just generally uneasy. How do we get through this? I've suggested to H that it might be a good idea to have a weekly one-hour, or so, consultation with each other to express anything we might have on our minds about our M. He said he thought it would be a good idea.

Any suggestions from anyone on more ways to get a feeling of closeness again?

Thanks for any input.
