My honest response to your post was.....WHOA Nellie!!! I feel like you're charging at him guns a-blazin. Of course I know you've also just summed up what's going on with you two.
GEL, I had to chuckle at this comment, because that is definitely what I was thinking also - it's a part of my nature that I find very difficult to suppress. I tend to fixate until I get it right.
I don't think that he would ever say, "Back off!" if I pushed too hard. I think that I would simply get silence on whatever issue I brought up and then he'd act as if nothing had happened.
I'm sure he's thinking that everything is honky-dory, and it is in the big picture sort of way. But we really haven't worked on our relationship in the "deep relationship conversation" way, so I was wondering if I should push.
To be honest, I'm glad that I don't have to push. I like how we are right now.
But on the other hand, I didn't want to come here crying six months from now, wondering what went wrong, and you all snort in disgust and ask me when that "deep relationship conversation" happened. I don't want to miss any steps.
Thanks for reassuring me that we're okay. I can relax now and enjoy us.
