Hi Nicole. Just checking in. I think you responded well to the text msgs... I would have been tempted to jump after the 1st one but you handled it well. Sounds like H has some mixed feelings... just keep on taking care of yourself and the kids; be open to conversations with H but validate, vs. a full-blown discussion back and forth with H. If he wants to share more about his sadness later, be a good listener and really hear him.

I understand what you're saying about it being hard to see H so much. I feel the same way about the lack of contact or face-to-face with my H!! It's just plain hard!

Take care!
