I have caught up with all the recent posts in your thread.
Keep detaching like you were. I liked your comment in the last post: "I'm really trying not to care." I know it is very hard to do but you can detach and I can tell you are giving it your best. That's all you can do.
You come across as a very honest, caring person. You are going to make mistakes thru this process, including with your children. But your heart is in the right place and you are human, so I hope you don't "beat yourself up over it."
As for being paranoid, I have gotten similar looks from my neighbors and my wife is living with her M 3 1/2 hours away. My guess is that they are curious about your sitch and feel bad for you, but don't know what to say.
I'll dedicate a prayer for you right after I click on the "submit" button.
Plenty of *Hugs*
