I have never really gotten along with my H family. I have tried, but I can never seem to please them. My H has told me that since this has all happened, that they hate me.
Last night we went to watch our D play a sport. When we got there, my MIL and 2 SIL were there. I knew that as soon as I saw them that my H would be ignoring me. He went to them, and I went and took a seat in the stands. A little bit later, I saw my H and S come into the stands and were looking around. I called my H (yes, I shouldn't have, I realize that) and asked him what he was doing. He said that he was looking for our D. He finally found her and after they were done talking, he stayed where he was at. I then walked over to H and S.
We stood there for a long time talking, and my H shared his popcorn with me. A little bit later, my H and S disappeared. I looked over and H was with his family again. I stayed where I was for a while and watched the game. During the second game, I talked to my D for a little bit and then I went to my car. I didn't say anything to anyone, just walked out. I could still see the game from the car and it was a lot warmer in there.
About 15 minutes later, my H text me. He said "is S with you? D said you left already." I smiled to myself and thought why didn't you just text S, but I replied that no he wasn't and no I haven't left. He then asked me where I was. I told him that I was sitting in my car because I was cold. He said ok and he was getting ready to go home. He walked out to my car and handed me money. I asked him what it was for and he said in case you need gas. I was shocked! Since this has started he doesn't just hand over money.
We got home, and I heated up supper. I expected H to go get on his computer, but instead he finished a project he had been working on. The kids had already eaten, so when supper was ready H and I sat in the dining room to eat. We sat in there for about 30 minutes just talking. After that I went to get ready for bed. I expected H to have his computer time, and he was when I came out. I laid in bed and turned on the tv. After about 15 minutes, H shut down his computer and got ready for bed. He came to bed and started holding me. I was completely shocked! We fell asleep like that.
This morning, I woke up and reminded myself to expect nothing. I got up and fixed coffee. I walked into the bedroom to wake H up and he ended up holding me again! I just wanted to cry, but I knew not to get my hopes up. We finally got up and drank our coffee and ate breakfast. He told me that next week he may have to be out of town for the night. I started to panick, but then reminded myself that my H didn't have to tell me this especially this far in advance.
He left for work and I started my day. Out of nowhere, my H text me to tell me about something that he saw driving down the interstate. I got all excited, but then I reminded myself to not be hopeful. The day is young, and he can change at any time. I need to continue to DBing and GAL. This is just a cycle we have been going through. Yes it's lasting a little bit longer, but the bottom can fall out at any time.
