Starting the conversation
I am having trouble, and always have, with communication. I recognize that this is a huge barrier to my husband’s healing. He has said that I never come to him and start a conversation with how I am feeling, unless he has been quiet. He’s not wrong, if he is having good days and we are doing things and seeming happy together, I want that to last as long as possible, but I can see his side of it being me just wanting to rug-sweep. We are in counseling together. I just wanted to see if anyone had some advice on how to get past this fear of the hard conversations and how to initiate a conversation without seemingly putting pressure on your BS to talk if they are not feeling the need to talk in that moment. I want to respect his feelings, and if he is not wanting to talk, but I also want to show him that I will never let communication be a problem in our relationship again.
