And I understand what you're saying about wearing my heart on my sleeve. Good advice.
I feel like I'm walking the plank here... the best I can do is keep control of myself. And my emotions. And not react.
How does validating work in C session? If H expresses "too late, too much water under the bridge" (he's said that to me before). I can validate by saying "I agree, it does feel like too much". Is there a BUT to follow that?
I'd like to make the point that MWD makes about positive attitude creates positive change. If H lets go of the 'too late' attitude, he could be open to change in feelings if there are any. And if there are not, then that's okay too.
But I think it will probably be most important for me to keep my mouth shut.
