Another good week! H has kept in touch, usually twice, each day. Big difference from a few weeks ago when there was almost no contact.
He's made an effort to tell me what he's doing each evening - with "guy" friends or business acquaintances or just staying at the apartment. Obviously I can't know what he is really doing, but that seems to be a step up from not telling me about any of his social life over there. I just tell him I hope he enjoys his evening (while I sincerely hope I'm not wishing him a good time with OW).
H said today that he is worn out and tired. He said he is looking forward to coming home for some rest!
Hearing him say he's looking forward to coming home and mentioning something positive here that he doesn't get over there is good to hear.
Unlike his last trip home, I am actually looking forward to his visit. I feel pretty strong right now. I am interested to find out if he has actually started working on the division of the business or any of the other things necessary for D. I'm prepared for whatever he throws my way.
One interesting note - a few months ago, when he was first involved with OW, he desperately wanted to learn the language. He hired a tutor, but they had a falling out after only a few lessons. He has said repeatedly over the past couple of months that he would find a new tutor. He still hasn't looked for one. I find that a little encouraging - that he is not quite as eager to continue the integration into that society.
