Yesterday I went to court with him and then we went to the intervention specialist.

On the way to court, he said that he had been thinking that we need to spend a lot more time together so he can "fall in love" with me again. We had stopped going out and doing things because he was half in half out. I could tell that he wasn't pulled back anymore.

On the way into court he said that he was very thankful that I was by his side.

The witness was late, so we went and had coffee and discussed possibility of him moving in with me or perhaps getting a smaller cheaper house somewhere else. That freaked him out a bit. "Baby Steps!!" I said I just wanted it to be something in the back of his head to consider.

At dinner discussed that I REALLY want him to sell the boat; he seemed like "yeah, if I *have* to" and I said "you quit putting money in the 401k, right? But you'll spend $500/mo on a boat?! Don't you want to retire? Fiscally- it needs to go; but just as much- I have an emotional problem with it. It represents exclusion, you being impulsive...I don't like it." He said he understood where I was coming from. (I think that logic has to win on this one, I mean, seriously. You stop putting money in the 401k and buy a boat?! Ugh.)

At intervention consultation the guy mentioned that we had a very easy way between us; asked H what was going on. H explained how he thought the grass would be greener and it just hasn't been and that he is lucky that I am willing to take him back. (!)

I asked him when he planned to tell roommates they need to go and he said "soon" (which made my stomach drop) and then he added "like this weekend; maybe before that."

We have a semi-plan for Daughter if we can ever get an audience with her. She never called her exbf on Saturday like he had expected. Not a good sign.
