Thanks John. You know, that's a very good question and something I need to think about. I guess I have a sense of what I want... I want her to overall allow me to talk without being defensive and to respond in a way that gives me some kind of insight as to what she was thinking or what happened, in her mind.. since we all experience things differently. I dont expect any long drawn out explanation, her feelings, anything like that, I and I dont expect (and really dont want) tons and tons of validation. In an ideal world some validation from her would be nice. I dont expect it. But I'd rather have none than boats of it. I need to think more about this as I think knowing exactly what I hope for, and maybe even being able to ask for it directly, would be very important if I choose to do this.
