And sure enough, in the photo there is an oddness to his eyes. They are not shark eyes but deer in headlights.
I see sadness and depression in so many of H's photos throughout the years. And a sense he was not engaged in life that was happening at the time. So much time wasted, IMO. For him.

Boy does this ring true. I swept so many things under the rug, or made excuses for H about why he was acting the way he was. I, too, am a fixer. It took this crisis to realize I can't fix anyone. They have to fix themselves, but can't unless they want to or have the courage to even start.
The sitch with your Ex and son - makes me wonder what is worse. No relationship (ignoring), or trying to be buddies. Neither are good in any event.
