I find I let him into our lives, only to find out that he just wants to float in and out whenever he feels like it and NO WAY was he intending to move back!! He turns back into the ugly selfish person.
You do understand that this pains you because you still place expectations on him. It's very hard not to do, but part of your detaching and GAL could include you working on zero expectations from him. MLC'ers are pretty good at disappointing and generally suck at pleasantly surprising us.
