I've read that too, that they start to reconnect with family and friends, kids and then spouse.
I thought my H had hit rockbottom last August but he has also bounced back into selfish mode and has withdrawn from me. Things are still all my fault.
Atm I think he is trying to reconnect with friends but finds that he hasn't got many, so is pretty miserable. He moves from one crisis to another and I am afraid that the lure of OW, who I thought was off the scene, is too strong. Self medicating. He knows that no OW is my only boundary and it is writ in stone.
It will be a year next week since H's mother died unexpectedly and precipitated this plunge into full blown MLC. I'm still here and still trying to hang on but it is hard at times.
