Funeral for a husband, love lies bleeding

[cczamo]

Update: Ex H has had to ask favor of me several times over the past few weeks. He's asked for me to watch his dogs overnights on weekends while he commutes down there. His 86 year old mom fell and broke her hip in Austin area, and had surgery.

I've been as upbeat and supportive as I can be with him, as it's a serious situation with her age. He seems mildly appreciative in a brusque sort of way. He will not really look me in the eye when talking to me in person, and is very very brief in answering any of my questions about her. And on weekdays, he is obviously trying to get in and out with the dogs without seeing me at all. I actually had to wait for him outside 2 days ago, just to catch him to ask him about her status since I care about her. I sort of feel that he owes me occasional updates. Maybe I'm wrong.

It must be strange for him to feel so in need of my help, yet so averse to seeing or talking to me.
Not that I care as much: in all my face-to-face interactions with him lately, I look at him and feel zero attraction. Guess I'm healing. Or moving on.
