Hi, Kris! Glad to hear that you were able to get out with some friends this weekend!
It sounds like you really know what you want and will settle for nothing less. Got some boundaries to lay down now, eh? Good for you.
I'm also happy that you weren't the first to initiate contact with H. HE was! Very cool.
Just my opinion, but I wouldn't ask him anymore about joining you and his family during their visit. He could perceive it as pressure, but anyhow, he knows the invitation is there. Best to just leave it at that.
You know what you have to do for yourself, and you will know when the time is right for you to move on, with or without your H.
(((Have a great day!)))
