At some point I know or have a feeling he will ask to come and play. Now generally before all of this I didn’t mind obviously it’s his downtime and outlet and I don’t need to spend every second with him, but I think given Current situations it actually upsets me a bit because I keep thinking that he is just acting business as usual not doing anything to “think” or work on himself during this time and space he has asked for, and it I think makes me feel deflated because I would rather him be working on relationship. I have told him to just take the computer with him and he hasn’t. Ok so I know DB is going ro tell me to not allow it, I can’t really leave the house so I can’t make myself scarce and I am too scared to tell him no he can’t play
😔 I know I am still so new to all this but this is one thing that has my stomach in a knot. Very trivial I know but I still feel I am walking on eggshells and my relationship is hanging by a very fine thread

Every one who comes here has a relationship hanging but a thread. Or the thread has already broken. Do not be afraid to DB because of the relationship ending. Doing things out of fear almost always brings about the thing that you fear. Do things out of strength!

That said, him coming to play the game isn't that big a deal. Just practice everything we've been telling you. He'll be immersed in the game so you be in another room doing your own thing!
