Kenn, I am writing on this thread now. You asked what's new. Not much. Status quo is much the same. H and I are on friendlier terms and having some pleasant conversations. I am still giving all the space in the world and detaching. He has called on non-household related issues and I have kept it light. He is generally spending more time at home these days (staying in his space so no real interaction) but I don't comment on any of this. I just go about my business in a cheerful manner.
Interestingly enough, in the past few days I have been approached by several guys who either flirted or said how attractive I was looking. Maybe I seem more confident and that is what is attracting them. I dunno but it is nice to get these compliments at this time.
