My H says and does things as well so to lessen the pain for us. My H is the same way. He feels guilty leaving and wants to make sure I'm okay and gonna survive so he offers hugs here and there, and offers to stay overnight to help with kids when it just makes things worse. That's why everybody says not to believe what you hear and only believe half of what they do. You have to give it time. Show him that you ARE fine. That he doesn't have to say and do things to cushion your fall. That you don't need the cushion cause you're not falling. I showed my H that and things took a turn. I'm starting that route over again today. We'll see if it works. As my H came in for a hug today again. Was it for his own reasons? Or was it cause he was protecting me again. I don't know, and I don't care to think about it. Again, only time will tell.
