NewMe, I'm really sorry.

I can think of several possibilities. One is your H doesn't want to end either of the relationships. As long as both of you are willing to be with him, he'll keep both of you. He may even figure if one of you ends your relationship with him, you'll have made the decision for him.

Another possibility is you are reading the situation entirely differently from him. He may think he's being kind and friendly and see you him acting as if he's in love with you. I know that's a painful possibility, but I think it's one you should consider.

The point of being kind to you is that he's not entirely a creep and he does feels some empathy for you.

The hardest thing for me was to stop being nice to my STBX.

I'm wondering why you are willing to accept so little from him.
