Quote: I'm not sure if this qualifies as anything but I said a really funny joke to W and instead of "basking" in her laughter, I did a "hit and run" and left the room while she was laughing as if I didn't need her response.
I think it would count for more if it was something emotionally thorny, like a high-value self-disclosure, and you GOT a negative reaction, and were still able to hold onto yourself while maintaining close proximity. However, I'll give you points for practice. Not that "points" from me (or my opinion) matter at all. Sounds like you are on a good track, and I envy you your C. I'm going to be going it alone, at least at first, so I will highly value anything you can tell me about your C sessions and the coaching.
BTW, have you read Chapter 13 yet? Which couple do you think you are? I think me and W are Joe and Faye...
