Wow, J, I have been dying to hear how you were doing up there in the frozen north, well soon to be frozen, anyway. I have been reading what you have said about getting more respect from H. I have started saying something to him now when he does something mean or disrespectful to me, and he seems to be responding in a positive way. If he does something I will say now why did you say that? or do that? he will sometimes either back down or say he didn't mean it like it sounded. I have gotten to where if I don't really feel like even being in the same room as him, I won't stay.

He has gotten to where he is doing some kinda sweet stuff, like calling the other day, and I wasn't home, and he left a song on the answering maching, and this morning he kept flashing the lights on his car at me as he left for work. So, I don't know what is up with that.

Well, about your sitch, I'm glad your H recognizes what is happening, and remember the best "I told you so" is sometimes not saying it at all. And in case, I hope you kept the CA house.
