H seems to be withdrawing again/more. Hasn't spent the weekend with S5 in the past 5 weeks. S5 spent the night about 4 weeks ago, but H went out. 2 of the weekends, H was away on business. Last weekend was the Mother's Day drama, and this weekend H said he needed to meet with a client. Never asks S5 to spend the night during weekdays anymore. Hasn't in probably about a year now. Doesn't call to talk to him. S5 doesn't ask to call H.
There was a time when I felt it was partially my responsibility to help kids maintain their R with H. Don't feel like it is anymore. Should it be?
H has a whole new wardrobe - new clothes, new shoes, new wallet. Even looking at getting a new car. Hard to say what it means if anything because H's business is doing well. For the past 2 years, H has worn the same clothes. Don't know if it's because he's bored or because he suddenly has the money.
For the MLCer's who have returned, are there many that have returned to families with young children? My H has not cared for S2 (almost 3) since day one. From what I hear, he's really enjoying the freedom single-life gives him - totally obligation-free. I am finding it hard to imagine him ever wanting to come back to family life.
My move is coming up. Besides what I've told him about it, H has not mentioned a word or asked me anything about it. Not that I expected him to.
I think my H has made a comfortable home in his tunnel. Seems unlikely he will ever come out. Although he's slightly nicer and more open and the alien eyes are gone, after almost 2 years of this, there is no major movement from him. I, on the other hand, am going to keep moving, wherever the path may lead.
