Woah. Bloody hell, I go out for one evening and the thread’s gone ballistic.
Whoever it was that said posters are not doing me any favours by speculating XH is testing the water! Let me be perfectly clear.....I DO NOT WANT HIM BACK. I’m using no contact for my own sanity, not to punish him and not to make him miss me, it’s my coping mechanism. I’m perfectly happy in my own home, with my own possessions and my darling doggie. He’s a rather large Lhasa Apso and he has a lovely temperament. He’s mummy’s little soldier 🐶
His texts to me today were very polite, my responses were very matter of fact.
Yes, there were jokey were comments that XH was having a MLC, but because our life was so happy, they were just laughed off. Hindsight is a wonderful thing.
None of us can know what’s going on in his mind, I sometimes wonder if he even knows. I’m not expecting him to come grovelling back, I think his recent behaviour indicates his intention to make a go of the relationship with OW.
All I want is to try to recover and to maintain my dignity but I am always bracing myself for the next smack in the face, although it’s really hard to expect the unexpected.
