H came home for lunch. I went out and said Hey! like I was thrilled to see him. He responded with a Hey! back. Before he left to go back to work, I was in kitchen folding some laundry. He stopped to tell me a couple things about work and then asked if I would be home later tonight. I said Probably, I should be. Then he asked if I wanted to go to the gym with him. I told him that Yeah, I should be available to do that.

Am I just his gym buddy now?????

Another thing that I remembered that happened last week that really irked me. He came to me asked me where this really nice and expensive watch that I had given him as an anniversary present about 5 years ago was. He has never worn it because right after I gave it to him, he tried it on and a pin fell out of it and couldn't be found. So it needed to be replaced and also sized and he had never made the attempts to get it taken care of. He doesn't even wear a regular watch, so why all of a sudden is he willing to get this really nice watch repaired and wear it now after all this time??? Why can he be and do all of these things now for himself and this OW, but he wouldn't do them during our R?

I feel like he is being the person that I had put him in position to be during our R, but he is just doing it all with and for someone else now though. The new clothing, the new hairstyle, the courtesy of opening doors, wearing his seatbelt now, going out to nice places and dinners, shopping (which he has abhorred since I met him), going to movies and fun attractions, weekend getaways, taking time off from work, keeping his truck clean, buying a camera and taking pictures, going to the gym with physique obsession, and now will be wearing the watch that I bought him as an anniversary present to top it all off!!!!!

I just want to know what the OW has done/is doing to deserve all of this attention and money being spent on her when that's all I ever wanted from him was quality time having fun and doing things together. Besides being younger and hotter, what else is drawing him to OW and how do I find out/figure it out what is???
