I agree with RW - it's all about balance. I wouldn't disappear, but I'd avoid the big homecoming. He should be giving the celebration to you. I'd be there - but hey, why not arrive late? Like you're so busy but squeezed him in. He's important but not all important, know what I mean? Or you could be home but busy around the house doing things for yourself - let him work a bit to get your attention!

Rooting for you big time here.

Just as we have to press our hurt down low when they are around, we also have to press our excitement down. I would think you'd want to give the impression that just because he's home doesn't mean he can take you for granted. He's VERY LUCKY you took him back. Keep telling yourself that. Let him make all the first moves.
