YES!! That was the dilemma I faced also. I was subtle at first. Made little comments about how he looked. "That color looks good on you" "I like your hair that way" "That felt nice, can I have another one" (after a hug or a kiss" I just made sure he knew I noticed. It was a very slow process but we got there Remember if you can try to understand that this is NOT about you but him it may help. He is carrying around all kinds of crap in his head. Guilt and shame are hard. He needs to know that he has been forgiven and that will take time. Rebuilding trust is so so hard. BUT He is home with you. He chose to be home with you. Baby steps, Baby steps
There can be no testimony without a test. I am praying to go through this test and come out the other end with a new and better marriage then before.
