OK. Now that I said my piece and got recentered, I can look at ways that I may be making life more difficult for my h than needs be. Now I feel calm and secure in myself and can put energy into being more understanding, loving, accepting, etc. Maybe give him a backrub the next time I see him, have a few stories to tell him that will make him laugh, cook him something (he loves that!). Probably the best idea would be to listen extra carefully to clues about his needs and try to meet them. Better yet, get to the point where nothing he does throws me off kilter so I don't feel like I need to SET boundaries--just need to have those boundaries THERE. YEAH, that's it! Am I expressing myself well enough so you all can tell what I'm trying to get at?
