Quote: In the meantime, I'm letting him see my daily worries and vulnerabilities with everyone and everything else, and he is doing a great job stepping up to being supportive. Slowly, the dynamics between us is changing. I'm enjoying being both participant and observer.
Maybe if you started a solution journal to track the changes in your dynamics, it would give you an opportunity to observe more closely and perhaps help you in developing your new construct about "intimacy".
I have started a thread in the Staying Solution Focused forum, My Solution Journal, so I can more closely monitor what's changing in my sitch. Of course, I'm no where near as far down the line as you are! But I know if I want to get where you and others on the BB are at, I need to start monitoring progress in a more concrete way.
