Thanks G. I am being very cautious. I amnot making anything of it just yet. very unlike what i thought i would be like. i figure worse case scenario is i am right back to where i have been, but perhaps a bit stronger knowing that i stated my ground on not being friends. If he should want to come back, then i guess i will have to wait and see what the next steps are. i am also preparing myself for him to backslide and pull away.
As for the DBing, it definitely is proven with my H and I that when i back off and state my ground that he loosens up and comes forward. Everything turned for me when he served me with D papers and I said I refused to sign them because a) dont believe in D and b) am being selfish and taking care of me and the pregnancy.
So will continue DBing and see what happens.
I couldnt help but giggle when i found myself scrounging for a brush to fix my hair and apply makeup touches to make H think I was naturally glowing and happy when he popped over. naturally i felt better about myself and laughed and smiled, and was just plain me. Didnt go overboard or look forced. I was just happy i guess... for whatever it was worth.
