No, the conversation about who he was able to count on took place about 9 months into our relationship. What he said to me the last night we were together before he was to be discharged from the Rehab facility when he asked for a kiss was if I was embarrassed. When everything was being organized and set up for him to move into a handicap apartment which was about 2 weeks before he left, he told me he would finally be able to lock his door. He would finally be able to have real privacy, no constant interruptions, peaceful sleep and that we could finally be free to show our affection for one another.As far as him being able to count on me, I was always there. I did everything for him. I was risking my job to save him. He was very well aware of that. I wanted him to enjoy time to himself, some space. He had not been able to care for himself and be independent for 3 years since the onset of his illness.
