Just found this little diddy on Slowly's first thread and decided I wanted to post it here as a reminder to myself:
make room for H's dignity - he has said he made a mistake, and is trying to recover from it. he is sorry to have put me through this. his pride has taken a beating (having to confess to me). i may want him to say he is sorry every 5 minutes, but it will never happen. i need to allow him space and dignity. be satisfied he has at least once acknowledged his error; it probably feels like a lot more to him
