"it must be nice to spend the day on the lake drinking beer, while some of us have to wipe tooshies all day!! hope you enjoyed the awesome weather!"
Not so much nice and cheery here. Trust me.. I resemble a DAM. See I would have said something like... "Hey.. nice boat you got there."
"i want to be very careful, he gets annoyed very easily"
If this is a indication of what he hears.. I can see why.
Seriously.. I am going to talk to you straight. I am not attacking you or putting you down. Guy talk.. is just like that. Don't take what I say.. as hurtful.. Just to let you know.. I feel the frustration in your last post. It's OK. This will take a second to learn.
"so i am done texting/calling for a while."
Stick to the plan. You are gonna screw it up. I built that in. So we are OK.
"and he text messaged me back...he doesn't believe in calling!"
Now I am assuming that was on the Good Morning test?
Did you respond?
"thoughts about the apology?"
Yes.. Now is not the time.
"Here is my idea...no more contact from me for a week or so...then mail it, wait another week or so, then start in on our plans...i'm scared if we start anything, then i try to apologize he may feel as if i am manipulating the situation."
You just told me.. you are out of your comfort zone. We are onto something. Trust me.. you follow the directions.. you will be no worse off than you are now. No.. on your idea. IMHO.
"Forrest, I have watched both my parents die right before my eyes...the hardest thing i have ever done, is to watch the man i love more than life itself...walk out of a taco bell with another woman"
Driving separately. If I had a truck.. and she was all that. She would be riding *****. If I had her around for fun time on the boat.. she would be following me around.
I kinda gather.. he may be with somebody. If she was that important.. you would be divorced.
I'm serious.. straight talk now. I won't hold back on you.. I expect the same!
Now..
Relax Eat Think Act normal React.. Smartly. Do something different. Emulate. Do Work.
