Ah, yes. Mine will still do something nice every time he does something awful. I just see it as as part of his fear of abandonment. A month ago we had a series of unpleasant conversations. The next day he included me on a group text with the kids thanking me for the pictures I had sent him. He has never before thanked me for that sort of thing. When we had our huge unpleasant conversation in July, he texted me right after to thank me for meeting with him. On July 3 we had a big argument. The next day he sent me a 4th of July card. Try not to read too much into it. Just part of the push-pull dynamic.
