Geez, Hope, that was a tough conversation, and you handled it really well on your end. It's a good reminder to me that just because it seems like H's anger and resentment have faded a bit, that might not be the case. No expectations, indeed. You should be proud that you have worked so hard to get to where you are, and that you are not weighed down with those feelings. He's struggling with those feelings, but at least seems somewhat aware of the struggle. I hope for his and your sake he continues to work through them. It might take longer than you'd hope, but that doesn't mean it can't happen.
