I got a text back from him last night.. at 2.20am! He had just got in after an Easter meal out with ALL our friends (he told me this) so more late night texts, which I havent had since July (pre-Helen).. and he said.. "say hi to your Mum and Dad" - thats MASSIVE! Thats the first time he has said that in 18 months, its a really big deal. He loves my Dad like a father and hasnt been able to mention him due to guilt after leaving me. My Mum said, he really is transparent isnt he.. its like he is back home all week, reconnecting with his old life, family, friends, now me and Dad... My ex told me that he was there to spend time with his Mum this week as he felt he "hadnt been that nice to her".. so all this is pointing to him coming out of the fog and stepping back into his old self and life. Its wierd, people write about it here, but I can really see it happening!
MORE NEWS!
So.. I replied today and then he did straight away! Said he was playing golf with a friend of ours (I know what he's been up to all week!) and wished me a good night tonight at Band night and signed the text...
Me
THATS HUGE !!!!! Thats deliberate, I was waiting for him to do that.. its a huge sign he is coming back around.. this is our pet name we used to sign texts and emails. He carried on doing it after the bomb, but stopped when he moved out and started signing his name. Then, when he started coming to see me again last Feb, he reverted to 'me' again, right up until the end of August when he started seeing Helen. When contact resumed by October, he reverted to signing only his name and stuck to that all along, despite the talks and hugs we have had.. right up until today !
Oh.. getting a little bit excited now. Venus stopped still today before it turns direct tommorow.
