Go KEB! I think what all of the HDWs are saying is that we need to expect a little torture before we earn our way back into the fold. No one here seems all that twisted, so it would be a safe assumption that we will need to clearly and consistently show our W's that they are the center of our attention.
As NOPkins said, "You need to picture yourself as the man of the hour, and learn to live it." It sounds like you are well on your way to that goal. Don't let your past bog down your future, and don't let a little rejection discourage you.
I anticipate a lot of rejection on the path to recovery. But the important thing is to make sure that NONE of that rejection is coming from yourself!
Chin up & chest out! It sounds like a chink in her armour is within your reach! 20 minutes! What I would give for a tenth of that!
