I do know what you mean but my W talks to me and it's in a cold impersonal manner, I can't do anything about it but accept that is where she's at. It does hurt to think that after 17 years of M and being a good H this is what it has come down to. Bottom line is we can't control what they do for the most part. I just think that if you force your H to talk you will get the same coldness only in person! It's not easy, is it.
