Something you said a few posts up also hit home. I think we're both looking for a bit of normalcy. If I bring back a little of my old self, I think it makes H feel like things are getting back to normal. He doesn't have to analyze everything either. I'm also looking for what was "normal" for us before -- but with the added benefit of a little more clarity on how to meet each other's needs so we both feel loved, needed, and cherished.
Like you said before, it's all about balance. For the past few months H says I'm keeping him off balance. Interesting, huh.
I do feel pretty centered right now. The trick is staying there for longer than 2 days LOL!!
