There is a VERY similar conversation going on Slowly's thread on this same forum..check it out. The issue of being emotionally honest and the risk of "chasing" the partner away vs. zipping the mouth at all costs and the risk of losing your vision of a M (and undoing some of the GAL, PMA esteem-builders that DB and other M reconciliation techniques offer).
It seems that many of us are stuck here lately....lots of interesting techniques and stories being shared on that thread.
