HP, it's got to be good if it preserves the relationship in a good (if not perfect) place. Instead of building up tons of bad juju that eventually bites you in the butt, the two of you are building a foundation for an even better relationship in time.
I had lost hope ages ago and it isn't a healthy place to be. It's good to have it again. It sounds like y'all have made it through the bumpiest part.
