I totally get where you are coming from, but there was a time when she would not even show this kind of emotion .... let alone say it. I do not have any expectations, it was more of an observation that all the DBing that I have done, doing what works and not allowing her to bait me into fights, staying positive, 180's .... GAL have been working and have lead me to this point, she is openly communicating with me about S, everyday life, her job, her family, she has started letting me in again, rebuilding the connection is the stage I am at now. Sure there is alot more work to do ... but this is WAY better than the place I was in 6-8 months ago. Long journey ... but there have been a good deal of positives to justify the DB actions I have performed to this point.
