I'm not sure if the OW still works there or not, but there is the distinct possibility.
I only told my H about the phone conversation this morning as he was asleep at the time of the call.
I avoided making any reference to OW and that whole mess. My H can read me with stealth ease, making my DB job a little more challenging. So noticing that I was worried he asked "Is something wrong"? I replied, "I'd thought that we had left that place behind us." This is when he said "Yes, my employment with them before is behind us". I can only assume he meant that what had happened there before is - behind us.
He said that he didn't want to make any decision either way until we get back from our vacation in Costa Rica, which is Feb. 24. He said that he wants to hear what they will offer him, that he didn't want to work for salary this time, won't accept working over eight hours a day like before and that he wants to check out other places as well.
He got a bit tense and snappy at one point when I questioned him about how he intended to handle this situation, should they call here. Perhaps he thought that I was being difficult...I don't know. I have noticed in the past that he tends to get touchy whenever we discuss his plans for maintaining an adequate income for our household. Too much pressure, perhaps?
Maybe I'm just being paranoid, but it seems as though my H is a little preoccupied since this all came up and after speaking with our friend this morning.
I also get the sense that my H's ego is stroked by this latest development.
As for the possibility of H seeing this as a test for himself and how far we have come, I get no sense of that all.
It's still too soon, but H has done little to warm me with this issue.
I know from experience that it does not bode well for me to seek assurances...so it's back to acting.
