Meanwhile, I'm holding my own. Still haven't gotten back to H about mediation vs. individual attorneys, or whatever. May wait for him to ask. It's been almost a week.
I got a text today from him saying 'sorry to bother you' and asking if a particular piece of mail had arrived. I said 'yes, it's here.' He said he has to come by and pick it up - sorry. I asked why he was apologizing - it's just mail...He gives me a lame reason that had nothing at all to do with us. Honestly, I kind of like that he seems to be feeling uncomfortable for a change. He always wants to be thought of as the nice guy, the good guy. I really think that may be the mask he has worn for so long. Not that he's NOT nice (when not in MLC), but I think it's very important to him that people think that.
And I LIKE that I'm becoming the strong and independent person I was when he met me!
