The last couple of days detaching have been going ok. Interactions with H have been cordial, no animosity. He came in the house this morning (he sleeps in his hunting trailer), pleasant talk about stuff going on with kids.
As we were standing in the kitchen, he hesitated and then asked what he should do if he was in the mood for sex. I know what you're all thinking, but I would rather him come to me for that than go elsewhere. I am able compartmentalize it right now.
Afterwards, he said something about going to do work Monday on the studio apartment he will be renting from a friend, I asked if he had the holiday off work. He then asked if I had plans since I have it off work, I said I was going to lunch with a friend (this is part of GAL for me, I pretty much never fo anything like that). H asked what friend, I told him who. He hen asked how to use washing machine (it's been about 20 years since he's done laundry himself), I was surprised, but showed him. I then left with s21 and d13 for the day, H was getting ready to take s17 on outing for said son's birthday.
Fast forward to this evening (H actually didn't go anywhere today except with s17). After dinner H went to watch TV in our bedroom, I joined, we just watched movie. Near end of movie he gathered his laundry and was heading out to his trailer, I asked if he was out for the evening, he said yes he might as well.
It almost feels as if he wanted me to do something while we were watching the movie, like he's wanting to see what I do differently towards him. He's told me where he's at mentally, but it feels like he's testing me. But I just watched the movie. He wants his space, I'm giving it to him. He can't have it both ways.
