Subject: Doesn't Scully's behavior seem bizarre?? (Season 8 spoilers)

I haven't watched the last few episodes but, from what I've gathered, Scully hasn't so much as *MENTIONED* Mulder in the past three weeks, much less made any further attempts to figure out where he might be.
Regardless of whether you like Mulder or don't like Mulder, think Mulder's the father of Scully's baby or think Mulder and Scully share a deep, but platonic love. . .doesn't this seem totally BIZARRE and out-of-character for Scully??
We saw, in NUMEROUS episodes during Seasons 1-7 that Scully cared deeply for Mulder, was willing to risk her career and even her life to save him and that she did, indeed, love him even if there was some debate over exactly what kind of love it was. We also saw that she was an EXTREMELY loyal person!
Now, we're being asked to believe that, within two months of his disappearance, she's so totally forgotten about him that she can go for weeks on end without even bringing his name into a conversation??
This *MIGHT* make sense if Scully believed Mulder was dead. While it would still seem a little strange to me, I suppose a case could be made, under those circumstances, that "She's trying to be brave, she has to put the past behind her, she has to concentrate on her career now, yadda, yadda, yadda."
However, Mulder is still alive and Scully knows it, or at least has no reason to doubt it. (She knows people come back alive from "abduction experiences"; she did it herself!) Yet, she has apparently decided just to concentrate on her job and not even spare a thought, a prayer or a whispered word for the man with whom she spent the last seven years working, teasing, flirting, comforting and sharing smoochies with??
This just doesn't sound like Scully!
