JK..hope your birthday was good..I know what you mean about your h not saying Happy birthday..the past 2 yeards I have not gotten a birthday or anniv card..I continue to give them to him, but not the mushy husband ones..it hurts..but I can't change what he's feeling. I think if your h wants to talk..then go for it..I wish mine would..I don't know what he's feeling now 8 mos. after leaving..he seems happier, we bothe are..he talks to me, we go out..do family things, BUT does he want to try and work on m??? I just wait..and hope and pray that he will..I think I am blocking that he may very well tell me that he is content where he is, but I want more..I don't want to live like this the rest of my life..I need a husband, friend, lover and if he is so sure that he can't go back to that, well then I will have to face that when it comes.
You seem to be strong..keep telling yourself that you will make it..give your h the space.
