I can completely relate to what you wrote Grace. I have the same premonition. But I am a long ways off from that as I think it would take my H at least a year to work up the nerve to say the word to my face. Honestly, I think he is quite happy to live on his own and be a part-time dad with no responsibilities other than cleaning up after himself in his new place. Your H is a lot like mine in some ways. My thoughts? I think he has likely already decided he isn’t coming home anytime soon (I hope I am wrong). I think he negotiated two months with you (just like my H was trying to get “just two more weeks”) because he thought you would be open to it and he could move out without too much drama. Now that he is out, he is telling himself that you won’t be quite as upset when he decides to make it longer. I predict that if you say NOTHING to him about it, the two month time limit will come and go and he will not bring it up. If you bring it up, he will either negotiate for more time or just flat out tell you he likes things the way they are. Like I said, I REALLY, REALLY hope I am wrong but I think this is a familiar movie that people on here have seen numerous times. If I were you, I would just leave it be, keep GAL and let him be the one to bring it up. If it comes from you, he will just experience it as pressure and pursuit.
