Hi RD, thanks for your kind words and you know that I appreciate all your help and support.
Yesterday was one of those difficult times in life that you just think how separations and divorces impact families in so many ways.
S18 did hurt his right foot with some spring in the garage and when he was cleaning up the wound in the kitchen, he fainted and had some kind of seizure. It was scary and I decided to take him to the ER. Before leaving the house I called XH to let him know what was going on.
At the hospital he was helpful and tearful. S18 was seen by a nurse to check if he could wait a little or not and then we all sat to wait the doctor. XH walked to me and gave me a hug. We talked and I always left the subject just about S18.
What is awkward for me is that XH is full of attentions and always put his hands on me. Like on my arm, my shoulders. If I say he is doing this with intention of being close to me, I can also understand that he is just trying to be kind and supportive to the situation at the moment.
If I say that he is supportive, then it could be that I am missing it because he is doing this even when there is no emergency or problem around.
The problem for me is that I do not know what to do. If I ask him to stay away from me, then I will lie, be immature and ignorant. If I don't, then it is letting him to be close to me, what in some ways is not good for me.
Yesterday was easy to just walk away and ignore what he does, but sometimes it is very obvious what is going on. So, I am not sure if I walk away or do the same for him, since it is one of his complaining, that I was not caring enough.
Well, I just want to mention this because the truth is that I have a lot on my "To Do List" and he is the least on that.
