Maybe, accepting the fact he battled cancer-alone
----------> I'm not sure I understand this, why is there any acceptance for the fact he battled cancer alone? Was he diagnosed during your relationship/marriage and wanted to handle it alone? I'm sorry, I'm confused.
Maybe being more supportive with his issues.
---------> What are his issues?
Maybe asking him to write me a letter too about what I need to change. Because obviously he has a problem with me, right?
---------> Remember, this isn't about pointing out what each others faults are...this is about recognition of our own faults and feelings. For example, instead of saying I get frustrated and angry when *you* don't (fill in the blank), say....It makes me very sad when we don't (fill in the blank).
I would offer an apology, but go in not expecting an apology back. This can be a major problem in relationships, we all have ideas of what or how we think our spouse/SO should respond or react, and when they don't react the way *we* think they should we get upset.
-------------------- Sometimes I need what only you can provide: your absence.
