Hi LovebirdsFlying,

It sounds like you both are willing to work on this. Sending my deepest good wishes. It must be really hard for your husband to have to call up his difficult childhood... I've had to do this also since I've been in couples therapy with my partner. (I've had portions of sessions where I just sit there with my arms crossed!) Not easy for my partner either, but we're working on it. I'm sure your guy loves you... just can't access the verbal part (yet) ?

E
