all of what you say is normal. My SO and I have to work on this stuff. And the fact that he is willing to do so means a lot to me.
If you're anything like me, you may suffer from low self-esteem and may feel sometimes that after all the work, the relationship will still never work. So maybe you do sometimes "push away" a little... you're just afraid of "getting hurt in the end".
But remember (during those logical spells- hee hee)that this is just your fear and self-respect (or lack thereof) at work.
He's working with you on this because he knows that you are worth it.
Try to bear that in mind !
