Hi gals, thank you so much for your posts. I haven't gotten the nerve up yet, OldTimer, but I am working on it, I promise. I know in the last few years I have gotten much better at not letting him (father) bother me and letting everything go by, with him.
My H will state how much I mean to him, ect, but alot of times it just seems as though the actions dont' mirror the words. Maybe it is both of us. Things are pretty strong, and he is committed to being here. We have went through h*ll and back, but that was a long time ago. He consistently shows positive behavoirs... bought me a mini van recently, roses at our last anniversary (that never happened before). But when it comes to showing affection or closeness, mostly its not there. Why would this be? I would say 90% of the time I initiate any type of hugging, ect. Thanks!
