Portia, Do you feel like you are talking to a very distant friend when you talk to him? Maybe it feels strange because you have been hurt and are trying to protect yourself.
I wouldn't ask him about his counseling sessiion or anything that pertains to it. I think you need to step back just a bit and allow him to bring up the topic. For all you know, he may not have gone....the one thing that I learned early on was to sit back, listen and then validate. Once I was alone I would replay the conversation and sift through it for clues. If you allow him to talk, he will eventually tell you what you need to know.
I'm sure he misses you, but he's not going to say it for a while if he's in mlc. Your man is not fully baked and until then, live your life to the fullest. Keep the focus on YOU!
Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to. The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
