Hmmm, yes, this does sound familiar. Very familiar, in fact.
I don't think you need to be depressed about it, because you seem to be making a great deal of progress. This does not mean it will be made every time, nor does it mean that there is a magical "aha!" moment where suddenly he Gets It, and so do you, and all is wonderful forever more. More usually, it's a matter of sitting back, letting things sink in, making small adjustments and minor concessions...and then revisiting things, and re-talking things, like real lovers do.
