Wow, Loveforever, your story sounds a lot like mine. I just did a little backslide with my H about an hour ago. He's been out of the house for 2 months now. I've been pretty good about keeping up the happy attitude lately, but our anniversary was this weekend and we went out to dinner but he seemed really preoccupied. I didn't say anything about it, but his weird mood continued through today. I finally asked him if he was bummed...he admitted he was and then proceeded to ask me if I had left an earring at his apartment. I didn't, but then it all clicked. He was mad at me because the OW had been over this weekend, found the earring, and blew up at him. He instantly assumed it was mine and that I had planted it there to make sure she found it!!! Great idea, but I wouldn't dream of doing anything like that these days because I'm trying to give him NO reason to be mad at me. Guess he'll always find something.

I just don't understand their mentality. It is so draining...hot one minute, cold the next. We ML a lot now, but the next day (or right after sometimes) his attitude shifts and he doesn't want anything to do with me. Almost like he feels guilty for "cheating" on the OW. I'm having a really hard day today...it's so hard to keep up the smiling face on days like this.

Hang in there!
Hugs
