Mine actually told me today he wished the younger me would show up. He wants me to remove the adult mask and let the messy out. So I'm thinking what you are doing is correct. The answers to our problems lie in those emotions, what brings them about and those are what we need to investigate. Your doing great APT, he has given you no reason to think he despises you either. These are feelings you are projecting onto him.
