Im glad that you got to talk to h and you have your dog to keep you company. Can you get a dog of your own?
I haven't seen my h in at least 3 mos. we only text each other. h is living at my MIL with ow. It breaks my heart. I think you have a good chance of getting h back it doesn't sound like he is seeing anyone. My h gave ow engagement ring 3 yrs ago when he left the first time. But that doesn't surprise me he gave me engagement ring after only knowing me 1 mos. when we met. He is very impulsive.
I have been waiting for a miracle in my m but I am losing hope.
