That's right. Positive statement #2 is that my husband is loyal. He's loyal as my husband and my friend. He's loyal by fulfilling obligations to the best of his ability -- and prioritizing those obligations if the need arises.
Sometimes it seems like he can't make decisions quickly -- but that's not true. He just looks at the choices from as many angles as possible so he won't have to regret the choice he makes. Or so he won't have to end a friendship. He enters relationships with caution -- he doesn't want anyone to get hurt and he's a loyal friend once friendship is established. If he disagrees with a friend, it doesn't end the relationship. In fact, it often makes the bond stronger because he just focuses on the "agreements" and determines the friend is more important than the disagreed-on opinion.
I believe that's why he's so loyal: he gathers up a lot of good on a person so he can wade through the bad without building resentment. Bill calls it a "friend bank." Mark allows people to make lots of deposits, but doesn't charge too much interest on withdrawals!
