You both sound like you are like on the way to being happy again... I too am there but I am a litte scared of my H words.... I know that whole sex but it being just that... I don't want that I want affection and I want to feel like we are forever... He says it and so do I.... But you know what I don't 100% trust that he means it and I guess that is why I don't trust that it is... Can you help me here and read my thread am I on my way to recovery and happiness with him forever..... Do I put my foot down and say enough is enough I want a kiss or a hug once and a while.... I too spent so much time on working on me and have a little ways to go but have come so far I don't want to let my guard down and get hurt again.... I guess I just need to know is this all normal...
