Hello Beatrice- I haven't been around here for awhile but I have been drawn back here at the moment because of some recent interactions with my XH.
You said "He finally appeared to get it, but he is odd, and I am not sure I have the energy for all of this oddness."
I feel this way as well. My XH has said he was sorry and realizes that he was the problem, blah, blah, blah. He was continually instigating contact so I brought up a few things to just see where he was at. Our last conversation ended with him asking for a hug and kissing me. After that, I told him that I felt like he would possibly like to reconcile but that he couldn't make the effort. His reply was "Enough said. I hear you." That was a week and a half ago and I have had no real contact with him since. So, back in the tunnel he goes which is fine but this "oddness" just makes me crazy! I momentarily felt myself getting sucked back in. I am in a much better place now and I can't let myself go there again...yet there is a part of me that will always love the man which makes it difficult. Do you feel that way? How do you have contact with your X and not let them get under your skin?
