RR - one of the things I've heard in IC is that we are wired so that we let our past dictate what are future expectations of the person are. A simple gesture or expression can trigger a negative impulse in our spouse. It is at these moments that we have to stop then BREATHE and the objectively assess each situation based on it's present merits. Not falling to the default mode with is often negative. I hope your situation turns out well. Stay positive- stay well!
