Hi guys! I called a Hash friend and had a little chat with her while xh was here (shoes off asleep on the sofa). I think he heard the convo because after I got off the phone he got a little p!ssed about a teachers CV he needs that I didn't have time to look for: he usually acts like this with the issue of the Hash. Now I get the pattern.

Hi Mishka...you're far from stupid! A CV is short for the Latin cirriculum vitae...basically is a resume.
I have been very busy today and what I posted was done from my BB while xh was sleeping on the sofa
Today is the birthday of our friends son so they asked us to go to their house for drinks, pizza and cake. I told xh and he sounded distracted. Turns out he had plans but he said he would cancel them for the evening. He was going to do whatever he needed to do and will pick us up around 7:30pm.
xh had been around almost all day today. He brought me to my interview, then we came back to the apartment, I left around midday to see a client and he stayed here (noticed he had been luing on the bed) and then we met at school and he then brought me to a meeting with another client. He dropped us off around 4.
I have the perfect chance to DB tonight. I get to do a 180 and act the opposite of what he might expect me to. The last time we were with them I could have been nicer to him. Tonight he's going to see who I really am. I also want to give them something to think about.

Hi! Tonight went well. We had a great time. I was very well behaved and we were very interactive.
He got a couple of texts but didn't even bother to even look at them. Only when we were getting ready to leave did he respond. I was impressed but also surprised at that. You know how the constant sending and receiving was driving me crazy. I think that the less I complained about this then the less he does it. ???
With the nice time tonight I miss him more now.

What I love about your sitch is just how much time you spend together. You have plenty of opportunities to do 180s.
Yeah I bet you're right that the more you pressure your XH about texting, the more likely he is to do it. Seems like ignoring something takes away its power/interest.
Well done tonight!

Since you all were talking about it, what is "The Secret." ? You get what you focus on?
Read what you said about the texts Jen. Makes sense doesn't it? You ignore bad behavior, reward good behavior. I case you don't know I believe that men are like dogs, very trainable and eager to please. That being said you all seem to like to try and catch guys doing DAM things, what do you find? We do all kinds of DAM things, so stop focusing on it. If I want to find all kinds of things my W beotches about all I have to do is focus on it. Not productive for any of us. Focus on the solutions, making ourselves better, and being better spouses. Hope you all have a great second half of the weekend. Cheers

In case you're checking this thread again, "The Secret" is based on the "Law of Attraction", in other words you get what you focus on, but this means both the positive AND the negative things, so it's important to really focus on positive outcomes.

Jen, I am so happy that things seem to be looking up for you. You did great with H last night and I'm glad the job interview went really well. I wish you luck on a positive outcome.
HUGS!!!
