I really believe that XH has used social interaction as his way to push down bad feelings.
I believe this is the case with my H. In fact, I think my H has used his relationship with me to keep from dealing with his issues.

when I read Jim Conway's info on the final 3 stages, the "What if?" section made me wonder if XH has been in Replay since his 1st D 16 years ago?
My H divorced his first W shortly after the death of both his parents. He had told me that they divorced due to her infidelity...I am now wondering if her infidelity was cause by his depression/withdrawal.
gag-As you know, I know the frustration when you feel them moving toward you and then they run away. We just have to live our lives making ourselves happy...living our lives as if they are never coming home. We really shouldn't spend much time trying to figure out where our MLCer is in all of this...there is no way to know for sure until they are done.
