Real life's getting more like fiction each day (2)

That was just strange. Not bad...but strange. H came over to get his things. He asked me before he took anything. "Would you mind if I took a few envelopes and paper clips for my paper work?" He appologized for wanting to take the suitcase! He ended up taking some of his clothes, his laptop, some things for him mp3 player, envelopes and paperclips, his alarm clock (asked if he could take that as well) and his bills/paycheck.

He told me that he found a "dingy little apartment" that has a 3 month lease. I said that I thought he was looking for something a little longer than that. He said no, 3 months would be fine. (What does he plan on doing after 3 months, I am not sure). He didn't say where this place was, but that it was near a laundry matt. So at least I now know that he isn't living with some woman, but has a place somewhere.

At some point, I said how I was looking to hire someone to mow the lawn, but the only person I found charged $30. He volunteered to come by and mow the lawn! I said that would be great! I said that I could pay him a little for doing it, and he shook his head and said "No Sara, I would like to do that for you." So now I know that he will be coming over now and then to mow the lawn.

When he was ready to go he asked me if he could hug me. I said that would be fine. He said how hard this is, and he was starting to get chocked up. I was too, but I kept smiling. He then told me I "looked cute." I thanked him and said I was wearing some new clothes. He said "those jeans are nice." He then kissed me on the cheek. Right before he left and was out the door he turned around and said, "please keep in touch, Sara." I told him that I would. He said that he would try to come over this week to mow the lawn, but with his school starting on Monday he wasn't sure when he could do it. I said that if he couldn't do it, that was okay, I could figure something out. He said, no...no....I will come over and do it. I am just not sure right now when.

Overall, I think things went well. It was just so sad. So sad to see the man I love packing up his clothes and leaving the house we picked out and bought together. But...even though it was sad I think he misses me. I really do. I have a good feeling about where this is all heading. I actually saw some of my REAL husband today...and not the jerk I kept seeing before.
