You're doing awesome, friend. Truly.

I'm going to offer additional mind reading for balance:
What if your H is considering getting back in your M? And is happy and nonchalant thinking you guys are S, dating, and he has that room to consider what he's doing? Really, when was the last time he mentioned D?

I know this is a pointless exercise, but since I know you can't stop yourself from trying to figure it out smile - might as well practice some of that optimism.

I smiled reading your punch-him scenarios. Lol. It's SO honest and beautiful and it's simply awesome you just recognized those feelings and didn't let them rick you. Congrats.
