My EXW the same on the eye contact thing. On the rare occasion we see each other whether it's guilt or anger she can't bring herself to look up and if I do catch her eye it's head back down quick. Almost like I'm a mirror and her true self is reflected back at her and she can't stand it.
On the positive side....so great to hear where your at and that your journey takes precedence. It is as it has to be for us to move on in a healthy manner. I can tell from your words and actions that you get it. That this journey was to make you better. I am glad and happy for you.
There is a big extraordinary world out there for all us LBS'ers...we just need to live it.
