It's interesting, I have found when I make a shift in my usual stance, soon thereafter, the other person also makes a shift. Our initial shift creates space for someone else to also shift. I find this often helpful.

As you keep your cool and take things in stride, avoid conflict, he may follow your lead.

I think with the shift I have had since all this began, I do notice he has made some positive changes as well.
I know that it can turn on a dime though. He will get nasty when something sets him off.
One major thing I have noticed is his lack of motivation. I read that is a common complaint from frontal brain injuries. He admits that he has no motivation to do anything. He works and that is about it. Which I am thankful for. But sitting in front of the tv is not healthy.

I am going to start going to yoga class once a week after one of my work days. I think the yoga and meditation that is a part of the class will be a good thing.
