Ammoguy, just got up on your thread/sitch, because your cool name caught my eye (!). What kind of ammo?
There are a fair number of similarities in our sitch's, and I'll just second the intervention by PortlandDad -- arguing over email and text is a lose-lose proposition. For one, it's impossible to infer "tone" from writing -- just look at the number of times people on my threads have thought I was dismissing their comments / insights -- even with those annoying emoticons, and for two the problem is (and I'm living it right now) that the text you send "lives" forever. If you irritate WAW with a text (or she irritates you, as mine did last night), she/you can just keep looking at it over and over, and it never goes away.
My WAW went out of town this weekend and I committed to not have a single communication with her except in case of medical emergency -- she, me, or the kids. Silence is golden.
