{{{T}}} You are so on the money,(do you read minds for a living)I told him that I d idn't want to talk. I did need to give him the bill for his car insurance to be paid. I wanted to be clear that there isn't anything else to say right now that either of us can hear. Last weekend's talk showed me that his sobriety hasn't changed his need to control me, to force me to accept his ways of doing things, and that I am not ready to hold my own with him. I can be strong, but I noticed that I am feeling too hurt to be able to really listen to him nor am I trusting anything he says. Silva has pointed out how much he is still thinking selfishly and not acting in any way toward a reunification.
He couldn't even respect my request to not talk about the R at that point in time. Though I have to admit that I have noticed some changes - like he is listening more and not always talking over me, he recognizes his ill behavior immediately and apologizes, he is calmer when talking and stays calmer when I am not calm. He doesn't talk about D anymore, only about wanting to work things out at some point.
