We ended up hugging twice which I was trying to avoid as I don't think he deserves to touch me. The first time he really squeezed me like he normally used to. Was a bit strange to hug him since I am really annoyed with him. But we talked about random stuff for a while and after about 5 minutes I forgot I was annoyed with him and just had a nice time chatting for about 20 minutes.
I am moving to a new house, as I mentioned before. He again offered his help, multiple times. I didn't really say anything in reply.
Our dynamic was very friendly I would say, he smiled and laughed a lot. But I am so irritated that he is still chasing after this OW. If I didn't know about that I would feel quite positive about his behavior toward me.
We are both supposed to go to the same party this weekend. He asked if I was going and I told him I was not sure. If we both go it could be a good opportunity for him to see me in a social setting and possibly flirting with other guys. On the other hand I might have to watch him flirting with girls. But it could also be a good way for us to possibly have some casual fun together and bond a little.
I am torn about whether to go or not. What do you think?
Any thoughts? Advice? I appreciate it.
Hugs, LisaB
Holy crap it is like the twilight zone here. Your interactions with your H mirror the ones with my W it seems.
I am glad you got through your meeting just fine, and yea, I know you probably felt good about it afterwards, as I normally do.
As for your party, I would definitely go. Yes, it would be a great time for your H to see you out socially AND see you interact with other people. Trust me, the scales are tilted in your favor. Yea, your H MAY flirt with other girls, but other guys will flirt with you. He has to make the effort on the other girls while other guys will be making the effort on you. Just make sure you are dressed to kill, look super hot, purfume, you know, the works. But whatever you do, do NOT spend your time with your H. This is your time to let him see what life without you will be like. He has to know how it feels to see you at your best and NOT be able to go home with you or occupy your time. Critical party IMO. I would bet that if he does see other people taking an interest in you, he will want to take you away from that. Be polite, super happy and nice with him, but treat him as if he was a stranger who has herpes. He has no chance at taking you home.
Best of luck!!!
