The cruise was great! I had a wonderful time, met lots of nice people and tried some new things like parasailing and jet skiing. At least for three days I forgot all about my sitch and focused on myself.

So while I was on the ship, H texted me regularly. He would ask about my day and wish me a good night. There was no cell reception onboard (you had to pay for that), so I didn't get all his messages until the night before we arrived.

H picked me up at the port and seemed happy to see me. We talked about my trip as well as some of the things he had done. We stopped for breakfast and then he took me home. He was quite affectionate, giving me lots of hugs.

I thanked him for pet and house sitting while I was away. When he was about to leave he gave me a long kiss. Despite my best efforts to remain cool, inside I melted. He wanted to ML, but I did not allow it to get too far. He seemed saddened or hurt by this (his expression changed, but i don't know what to make of it. I don't think he expected me to say no to ML). I truly wanted to ML with my husband. I took every ounce of my willpower not to.

Now i wonder if this was a mistake. Rationally I think that if he really wanted to win me back, getting rejected would not stop him from pursuing me. However, another part of me feels that he felt like I was not interested in him and he is now discouraged from pursuing. Ugh! I hate this! I second guess everything I say or do.

One curious thing he told me was that one of our neighbors (female) saw him yesterday and told him rather bluntly something to the effect of: "When are you coming home? I understand you are young and handsome and are having fun, but it's time that you stop this and come home."

I never told any of my neighbors anything about this, so I guess she put 2 and 2 together since he hasn't been around for 6 months. I wonder why he would tell me this? Seems strange that he would share this convo with me. Anyway, I can't read his mind so I have no idea why he would do this.
