Not sure where I belong...STBX has regrets.

[Shelby]

Not sure where I belong. I have been in the Survivng the big D for the past 2 years.

Quick summary. My STBX had me served at work 27 months ago. I was totally surprised. He told me he wasn't happy but I had no idea he had even seen a lawyer. So being served was a shock. He moved out that night and I believe he moved in with his work girlfriend that night, although he denied that for months. Since then him and th GF have bought a new place to live. In the past 27 months he has not moved the divorce forward at all. He has continued to pay all the bills.

Last week I got a message from him saying he misses me and the girls. He has regrets.
Another message said he plans on moving out of the GF's place and temporarily move in with his mom. He wants to recommit through counseling and whatever it takes.

I have been terribly confused and speechless.

My reply has been limited. Friday he came up to see my daughters game and then he took us all out to dinner afterwards. In the past 2 years we probably had 3 or 4 family dinners. So although its uncommon, I don't think the girls thought it was totally strange. I usually turn down to the offer to come when he takes the girls out.

Since the last message sent he hasn't said anything else about us.

I am really confused. Any advice or suggestions would be appreciated.
Thank you !

Ps. In the past 2 years I have not started dating. Although it has been on My mind lately that it is time to put my self out there.
