Question though my h usually does a check in with me via text. He'll want to know what I've been doing and with who. How should I answer this?
The fact that he is still this emotionally attached to you is why I am convinced that his EA will blow up in his face, and sooner rather than later.
And I wouldn't put it to him the way I put it to you; just don't respond to his texts. If he panics and calls, just tell him you were busy.
As you start pulling away from him and growing more into your own person -- and believe me, if he is texting you to check up on you, he will notice your changes! -- I think you'll be surprised by the change in his attitude towards you.
If anything, I'd pop me some popcorn and watch the fireworks start...
