How was his demeanor while you two were working on the house. The compliment was a nice gesture. I would read him asking if you were seeing anyone as there is still some interest. Him not seeing anyne is a better sign. If you still want your M to work then try a different approach. Havig the limited contact doesn't seem to be working for you for this amount of time. Maybe a call to just see how he si doing what he is up to, maybe be his best friend (it is hard and requires a lot of self sacrifice, but at the end of the day you would like to be your H's best friend...why not start there), help him move in, decorate, etc.
My W and I recently sold our dream house and separated. During that time, I helped her move in, helped her in any way expecting nothing in return. Lately (1 month later) she has already suggested that I move back in and has been having a more positive attitude around me.
Basically I would re-evauate your approach and adjust, it can't hurt at this point.
Best wishes
