'Hi H, hope you had a fun weekend. Next weekend is fine for me although I have a few things I have to do so maybe bring your key to be on the safe side. BTW I have popped a card and a small something in the post for your birthday. Enjoy your day tomorrow.'
He hasn't responded yet. I think maybe after our text interaction on friday he got a bit scared off, and also it talks about the birthday present which he won't really know how to handle. I'm going to try not to panic or assume anything. Only he knows why he can't respond to me. I'm not going to push the weekend, if I don't hear back I will just make my own plans and he will have to fit round that. I can't keep my life on hold because he has some issue going on about responding to texts. Also, when I do hang around for him he sees that as pressure so I can't really win. The only thing is it drags things out on my part. If he messes me around about this weekend I will have to address it with him. I'll think about that if it arises.
How did you and your wife overcome your anxiety of failure?
