MIL update-

So I mentioned today the MIL was coming to see D before she embarks on her trip. He said ok. I then mentioned she was staying here. He seems unphased, left and then called D on her phone to ask if she’d like to put her excess stuff (from the living room, where she sleeps) outside by the garage, then he’d put it in the garage. It’s apparent he wanted to be “present” for his mom.

When MIL arrived, he was home and greeted her. He later came and sat with us and we talked about movies he’d seen at the theater. He eventually got up and left the room and did not say anything. We did not see him again.

He has texted D from the other room to ask her to breakfast tomorrow. It’s all so weird. I was so concerned about having family here, and he has basically avoided his mom. If I had t told her, she would just assume he was being aloof.

It still is anxiety producing, but i need to focus on me and not try to figure out where his head is.
