Hey, about 1/2 way through and I have to leave for the night. You sound like you have a really good sitch here. H has some fears and needs to work on himself.
I see many similarities between your H and mine. I just wish my H would kiss me or tell me ILY. He is so afraid to show affection. I've been cut off for so long.
Anyway, I'm eager to see how this progresses. Keep us posted definitely.
