Wow, that certainly is complicated, isn’t it?
I read that you are the one who called the time out, and he wants to get back together, as do you. If I got that right, I’d say that your DL interests are not a show stopper for him. He knows, and still wants to be with you. He could have communication issues, or it could just be bafflement. As long as he does not want to “cure you” of your interest, it may work out fine.
I think you are right that seeing as how you have DL very much “on the table”, and seeing as how you are contemplating getting back together, you should just “show him” as you put it. It could be asleep and diapered, or it could be diapered under clothes, or whatever.
These happen to be favorite turn-ons of mine, so I could be a really, really bad judge of “appropriate behavior”. But if you are going to be together and you are not going to be a closet DL, well, you gotta start somewhere.
And if he seems OK with you wearing but is still firmly neutral, as in it does not directly turn him on, well, that may be fine. My belief: sensible men love horny women. If DL play turns you on, he will pretty quickly come to appreciate that fact and be fine with it. You’ll just have to figure out if he wants you to have a quick wash before sex. I personally love the way my wife smells after being wet and diapered for a few hours, but I might find it too weird if I was not DL.
