He's still connected.....If he was pleased about the T-shirt and teh validation, is that something you didn't do before? Can you start to build on this? It may take some time, but slowly does it. But your in no rush. My H was the same, he stayed away in the initial few months and I think when he knew it was 'safe' for him he started to stay a bit longer and chat for longer.
Your GAL activities sound Fab and I think a good idea to build a network of new friends. If you didn't do this much before, do you think that maybe your H felt a bit suffocated, in other words he may have felt that you totally depended on him for entertainment.
I know how you feel about being 'down'. I have good days and bads days and i totally obsess about my H. I don't feel in a place that I want to shut down and let go yet, i'm not ready for that, I guess we have to act as if around our H's, it's the not knowing and been in a state of limbo or holding.
Your doing really well.
