I think its a normal part of the process too. I went through a pretty severe case of the guilty syndrome and apologized to H for all sorts of things from a 10-15 years ago and he pretty much reacted like your H did.
I eventually decided that the only way to truly show remorse is to change my actions for the better now and in the future. You've obviously done that already, so ditch the guilt.
Honey, I've been following some of your posts lately and I am just so thrilled for you. There is such a change in the tone of posts, you exude happiness and positive energy, and that is awesome to see.
