That is how I feel about it. I don't necessarily want her to get angry or talk about it. I just find it strange she doesn't acknowledge it. Maybe that is best.

For me it is a very private thing. Even from her. I always do it where no one can see. Usually on my upper thighs or ankles that are cover by socks or underwear. For me it is almost a ritual. A sort of self soothing. A way to go numb and be able to deal with awful feelings.

It has been 8 days since I last did it. Thought about it quite a few days, but I held off the urges.
