It said when your first marriage was failing, XH would show up every evening with flowers. That you got to the point of feeling sick if he turned up with another flower. That it felt to you that the flowers were his way of avoiding the real work of building a relationship of extraordinary care.

As it happens, I don't think my XH was capable of building a relationship of extraordinary care. For you, I sense there is more chance. For example my XH would never have moved out in a million years.
