“How can I both miss him and need to escape him?” That is exactly where I am. My son has recently reached out to re establish a relationship. We went ice skating last night (an old thanksgiving tradition between us) and made chili because he wants to learn to cook. He wore his baggy sweatshirt and pants but when we got to my house he took the sweatshirt off to reveal a sports bra with a tank top. And breasts. I could not say a word, I could only pretend I didn’t see it, looking only into his eyes. But accidentally catching glimpses of his new frame. I love him but he almost feels like a stranger. We were pretty much estranged for over a year and a brief return, then a bit of communication after. He clearly wanted me to see the “new” him. I feel like I am in the twilight zone
