I like the idea that you were meant to meet in order to move to a more peaceful part of your life. Think about all the choices you had about who to work with and when to start therapy.
Good for you for being so brave. I agree with Falls that these kinds of conversation typically lead to a deepening of the relationship. You took a risk and it turned out OK. So now you can risk something else too. I think there are so many parts of your feelings to still be explored. Wanting a social relationship is one thing, but feeling that connection you talk about sounds like even more than that. It is good that his boundaries are strong enough to let you think and talk about it without worry.
I was thinking about what you said about your husband. Sometimes when we are closed off they feel pushed away. And they don't know how to reach us, so they close themselves off too. Sadly the rift widens and there are few bridges left to use, for either one of you. I'm glad you were able to reach across and connect. It sounds like he needs you right now. This might be the opening you need to talk about what is happening. Good luck.
