I just had another strange encounter with H, hence my being awake at 1:30am.
When I went to bed at 11, H and BIL were downstairs cutting up a deer. Well, a little while ago I heard noises in the hall, so I went to investigate. It was H just coming out of the bathroom. He said that he needed some shaving cream, which he had in his hand.
He then said that he was also going to come into the room I was sleeping in to see me since he didn't feel right just leaving without checking in with me. I told him "thanks". He seemed to hesitate in leaving so I just lightly squeezed his elbow and he turned around, grabbed my hand, and gave it a light squeeze. Now lets see, as far as I can ascertain, it has been over 3 years since H has reached for my hand in any manner. His behavior is so unbelievably strange.....
But, back in the swing of things, I am chalking all these strange behaviors up to H wanting a "friendly" D.
