He wouldn't hold my hand in public

I know my partner has cheated on me in the past and I don't know for positive - yet - that he's still cheating.
Yesterday we went to the feed store in small neighboring town for electric fence supplies. When we came out of the store we decided to go to the bar across the road to play video poker. As we headed that way I grabbed his hand because it's what we sometimes do. My hand slipped from his and I went to grab it again assuming he had to adjust something and expected his hand to return to mine. (I never thought about a basic behavior like this until now.) This time though he made an obvious point of shaking my hand out of his and then said that it felt weird doing it in a small town like this. (We come from a small town).
Yeah I was angry and very hurt and still am.
Later I was able to tell him why I was angry and he said that as we walked up to the bar he all of a sudden got a feeling of something weird like danger and something wasn't right about that place.
I say he didn't want certain people in that town to see him with me, his wife.
Fck him. This was the last straw. I'm moving into the spare bedroom and downloaded court motion for divorce. If he won't touch me and acknowledge me in public (or only certain towns) then he sure as hell can't touch me in private.

Yeah I find that suspicious too. Obviously he didn't want any women in the bar to see him with you.
As for cheating, time for you to move on. Then after you get a divorce go to the same bar with your new bf holding hands.😌
