Maybe this is just some penduluming (sp?). You made a huge decision (even if you did almost literally fall into it), and there's a big (for lack of a better term) emotional adrenaline surge associated with it. Maybe that just wore off ....
I dunno if this is what Corri meant, but you seem like such a loving, giving, serve-others type of person .... you could get "sucked back in" to *more* of a relationship with xbf than you really want, especially if his mother takes a turn for the worse and he really starts to lean on you. Whether or not it tends toward the romantic again, it could monopolize time you might better use for *really* GAL and moving on....
.... your choice, of course.
